When Imputation Changes the Nearest Neighbor: Exact Certification of Similarity Retrieval for Incomplete Sensor Time Series
Key Insights
- Sensor time series routinely reach similarity search with missing values, and the retrieved neighbours then depend on how the gaps were filled.
- We ask which retrieval conclusions hold for every admiss.
