Description

Matrix Profile is an algorithm developed by the Keogh research group at UC-Riverside (https://www.cs.ucr.edu/~eamonn/MatrixProfile.html) that serves as an extremely powerful tool for finding patterns, anomalies and evolving behaviors in massive timeseries datasets. We released a Python version of Matrix Profile last year (matrixprofile-ts) and it seems like a good idea to align further development with Python machine learning best practices, as well as to broaden the user/developer base.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the Matrix Profile research page and the existing matrixprofile-ts Python implementation, then compare its scope with scikit-learn’s machine-learning conventions. The issue does not name files, tests, an entry point, or concrete acceptance criteria; done would require agreeing on how the algorithm should be integrated and validated.
