Quantiles and Quartiles
Quantiles and quartiles are fundamental concepts in statistics that provide a valuable framework for understanding the distribution of data and its central tendencies.

This paper is about time series classification using #MachineLearning. I.e. given a time series, predict a single category that the #TimeSeries belongs to. The proposed idea is to split the time series into sub-sequences, and for each sub-sequence calculate #quantiles. The quantiles are the feature representation of the time series.

QUANT: A Minimalist Interval Method for Time Series Classification

We show that it is possible to achieve the same accuracy, on average, as the most accurate existing interval methods for time series classification on a standard set of benchmark datasets using a single type of feature (quantiles), fixed intervals, and an 'off the shelf' classifier. This distillation of interval-based approaches represents a fast and accurate method for time series classification, achieving state-of-the-art accuracy on the expanded set of 142 datasets in the UCR archive with a total compute time (training and inference) of less than 15 minutes using a single CPU core.
