Window-based change detection algorithms.

Approach Window
size
Window preprocessing Change score Change significance test
RuLSIF [8] Any Hankel matrix Probability density ratio estimation with Pearson divergence Threshold learning in supervised applications. N/A for unsupervised applications
Texture-based [5,6] Any Grey-level co-occurrence matrix, texture features Weighted normalized Euclidean distance N/A
PCAR [7] Large m×N KL distance permutation matrix Count of time intervals with significant changes (proportion of permuted KL distances greater than observed window) N/A
sw-PCAR Any N KL distance permutation vector KL distance Non-parametric outlier detection based on Boxplot analysis
Virtual classifier [9] Large Physical activity features (intra-day and inter-day if window size > 1) Cross validation prediction accuracy of binary classifier Hypothesis testing based on prediction accuracy exceeding a threshold

KL = Kullback-Leibler, m = number of time intervals, N = number of permutations.
