A Demonstration of TENDS: Time Series Management System Based on Model Selection

The growth in sensor technologies, IoT devices, and information systems has opened up new opportunities for managing time series data across various domains. Despite significant progress, existing time series management systems face two crucial limitations: insufficient functionality and inadequate adaptability. This highlights the need for more comprehensive systems that not only improve data quality and analysis but also effectively manage the variety and volume of time series data. This paper presents TENDS, a time series management system based on model selection. TENDS uniquely combines advanced functionalities for imputation, prediction, and anomaly detection, offering a comprehensive analysis of time series data. It features (i) an effective model selection mechanism to adapt to various data types and to improve efficiency; (ii) fourteen state-of-the-art prediction methods and three state-of-the-art imputation methods; and (iii) a dynamic expert knowledge base for anomaly detection, evolving continuously with new data to ensure accuracy. TENDS boasts a comprehensive suite of visualization tools. With its configurable offline and online interfaces, TENDS (i) provides extensive flexibility in model selection and parameter adjustment, (ii) facilitates easy visualization of training results, and (iii) supports real-time documentation and statistical analysis of time series.
