Construe: a software solution for the explanation-based interpretation of time series

Artificial Intelligence 2020-03-18 v1 Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition Logic in Computer Science

Abstract

This paper presents a software implementation of a general framework for time series interpretation based on abductive reasoning. The software provides a data model and a set of algorithms to make inference to the best explanation of a time series, resulting in a description in multiple abstraction levels of the processes underlying the time series. As a proof of concept, a comprehensive knowledge base for the electrocardiogram (ECG) domain is provided, so it can be used directly as a tool for ECG analysis. This tool has been successfully validated in several noteworthy problems, such as heartbeat classification or atrial fibrillation detection.
