ABSTRACT

Sequence segmentation and dimensionality reduction have been used as methods for studying high-dimensional sequences — they both reduce the complexity of the representation of the original data. In this paper we study the interplay of these two techniques. We formulate the problem of segmenting a sequence while modeling it with a basis of small size, thus essentially reducing the dimension of the input sequence. We give three different algorithms for this problem: all combine existing methods for sequence segmentation and dimensionality reduction. For two of the proposed algorithms we prove guarantees for the quality of the solutions obtained. We describe experimental results on synthetic and real datasets, including data on exchange rates and genomic sequences. Our experiments show that the algorithms indeed discover underlying structure in the data, including both segmental structure and interdependencies between the dimensions.
