The high complexity stems from several factors: the multiplicity of vehicles, embedded systems, use cases, and the very high required level of reliability for the driving system to be at least as safe as a human driver. In order to circumvent these issues, large scale simulations reproducing this huge variety of physical conditions are intensively used to test driverless cars. Therefore, the validation step produces a massive amount of data, including many time-indexed ones, to be processed. In this context, building a structure in the feature space is mandatory to interpret the various scenarios. In this work, we propose a new co-clustering approach adapted to high-dimensional time series analysis, that extends the standard model-based co-clustering. The FunCLBM model extends the recently proposed Functional Latent Block Model and allows to create a dependency structure between row and column clusters. This structured partition acts as a feature selection method, that provides several clustering views of a dataset, while discriminating irrelevant features. In this workflow, times series are projected onto a common interpolated low-dimensional frequency space, which allows to optimize the projection basis. In addition, FunCLBM refines the definition of each latent block by performing block-wise dimension reduction and feature selection. We propose a SEM-Gibbs algorithm to infer this model, as well as a dedicated criterion to select the optimal nested partition. Experiments on both simulated and real-case Renault datasets shows the effectiveness of the proposed tools and the adequacy to our use case.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2008.00946v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2008.00946v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"conditional-latent-block-model-a-multivariate","repo_url":"https://github.com/EtienneGof/FunCLBM","is_official":1,"mentioned_in_paper":1,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"autonomous-driving","task_name":"Autonomous Driving"},{"task_slug":"clustering","task_name":"Clustering"},{"task_slug":"dimensionality-reduction","task_name":"Dimensionality Reduction"},{"task_slug":"time-series-1","task_name":"Time Series"},{"task_slug":"time-series","task_name":"Time Series Analysis"},{"task_slug":"time-series-clustering","task_name":"Time Series Clustering"},{"task_slug":"feature-selection","task_name":"feature selection"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"feature-selection","method_name":"Feature Selection"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
