In defense of sliding windows of time series, if not clustering, the principal components analysis of the matrix on page 1 is one robust way to extract a linear model for the system producing the time series. It's useful for finding fr

Not only similar, it's identical to Newton Raphson in ideal arithmetic! The nth order product approximation for the reciprocal of d = 1 - x is y_n = product_{i=1}{n} (1 + x^{2^(i-1)}) = sum_{i=0}^{2^n - 1} x^i = (1 - x^(2 n)) / (1
