Abstract Text | Feature ideation is a crucial early step in the feature extraction process, where new features are extracted from raw data. For phenomena existing in time series data, this often includes the ideation of statistical parameters, representations of trends and periodicity, or other geometrical and shape-based characteristics. The strengths of automatic feature ideation methods are their generalizability, applicability, and robustness across cases, whereas human-based feature ideation is most useful in uncharted real-world applications, where incorporating domain knowledge is key. Naturally, both types of methods have proven their right to exist. The motivation for this work is our observation that for time series data, surprisingly few human-based feature ideation approaches exist. In this work, we discuss requirements for human-based feature ideation for VA applications and outline a set of characteristics to assess the goodness of feature sets. Ultimately, we present the results of a comparative study of humanbased and automated feature ideation methods, for time series data in a real-world Industry 4.0 setting. One of our results and discussion items is a call to arms for more human-based feature ideation approaches. |
