We consider the problem of detecting multiple changepoints in large data sets. Our focus is on applications where the number of changepoints will increase as we collect more data: for example in genetics as we analyse larger regions of the…

We describe a new algorithm and R package for peak detection in genomic data sets using constrained changepoint algorithms. These detect changes from background to peak regions by imposing the constraint that the mean should alternately…

Whilst there are many approaches to detecting changes in mean for a univariate time-series, the problem of detecting multiple changes in slope has comparatively been ignored. Part of the reason for this is that detecting changes in slope is…

Given a time series in $R^n$ with a piecewise constant mean and independent noises, we propose an exact dynamic programming algorithm to minimize a least square criterion with a multiscale penalty promoting well-spread changepoints. Such a…
