The recent great technological advance has led to a broad proliferation of Monitoring Infrastructures, which typically keep track of specific assets along time, ranging from factory machinery, device location, or even people. Gathering this data has become crucial for a wide number of applications, like exploration dashboards or Machine Learning techniques, such as Anomaly Detection. Time-Series Databases, designed to handle these data, grew in popularity, becoming the fastest-growing database type from 2019. In consequence, keeping track and mastering those rapidly evolving technologies became increasingly difficult. This paper introduces the holistic design approach followed for building NagareDB, a Time-Series database built on top of MongoDB—the most popular NoSQL Database, typically discouraged in the Time-Series scenario. The goal of NagareDB is to ease the access to three of the essential resources needed to building time-dependent systems: Hardware, since it is able to work in commodity machines; Software, as it is built on top of an open-source solution; and Expert Personnel, as its foundation database is considered the most popular NoSQL DB, lowering its learning curve. Concretely, NagareDB is able to outperform MongoDB recommended implementation up to 4.7 times, when retrieving data, while also offering a stream-ingestion up to 35% faster than InfluxDB, the most popular Time-Series database. Moreover, by relaxing some requirements, NagareDB is able to reduce the disk space usage up to 40%.

Within the context of clean energy generation, solar radiation forecast is applied for photovoltaic plants to increase maintainability and reliability. Statistical models of time series like ARIMA and machine learning techniques help to improve the results. Hybrid Statistical + ML are found in all sorts of time series forecasting applications. This work presents a new way to automate the SARIMAX modeling, nesting PSO and ACO optimization algorithms, differently from R's AutoARIMA, its searches optimal seasonality parameter and combination of the exogenous variables available. This work presents 2 distinct hybrid models that have MLPs as their main elements, optimizing the architecture with Genetic Algorithm. A methodology was used to obtain the results, which were compared to LSTM, CLSTM, MMFF and NARNN-ARMAX topologies found in recent works. The obtained results for the presented models is promising for use in automatic radiation forecasting systems since it outperformed the compared models on at least two metrics.

Air passengers prediction is said to be the centre of gravity of the growth. With people on the move constantly, there is bound to be some dissatisfaction amongst the customers which could be due to various reason, varying from overbooking of flights to ground operations. This dissatisfaction can be controlled till a limit, in ballpark figuring. In the past, this has been done using various machine learning techniques. For this prediction, in this project, ARIMA Modeling is used which is a time series forecasting method, based on machine learning. To test the stationarity of the data, which is done using Dickey Fuller test. If the data is stationary, it is fit into the ARIMA Model. If the data isn’t stationary, it is made stationary by differencing or by logarithmic transformation. The logarithmic method to make the data stationary. Once the data is stationary, using the Partial autocorrelation function and the autocorrelation function, values of p and q are found, which are required in the time series method. These values are then fit into the ARIMA Modeling and hence, the results are predicted. Upon the use and fitting of various models, the ARIMA(2,1,2) has been the best fit, having the least RMS and RMSE values.

Wearable sensors have the potential to enable comprehensive patient characterization and optimized clinical intervention. Critical to realizing this vision is accurate estimation of biomechanical time-series in daily-life, including joint, segment, and muscle kinetics and kinematics, from wearable sensor data. The use of physical models for estimation of these quantities often requires many wearable devices making practical implementation more difficult. However, regression techniques may provide a viable alternative by allowing the use of a reduced number of sensors for estimating biomechanical time-series. Herein, we review 46 articles that used regression algorithms to estimate joint, segment, and muscle kinematics and kinetics. We present a high-level comparison of the many different techniques identified and discuss the implications of our findings concerning practical implementation and further improving estimation accuracy. In particular, we found that several studies report the incorporation of domain knowledge often yielded superior performance. Further, most models were trained on small datasets in which case nonparametric regression often performed best. No models were open-sourced, and most were subject-specific and not validated on impaired populations. Future research should focus on developing open-source algorithms using complementary physics-based and machine learning techniques that are validated in clinically impaired populations. This approach may further improve estimation performance and reduce barriers to clinical adoption.
