The detection of time series motifs, which are approximately repeated subsequences in time series streams, has been shown to have great utility as a subroutine in many higher-level data mining algorithms. However, this detection becomes much harder in cases where the motifs of interest are vanishingly rare or when faced with a never-ending stream of data. In this work we investigate algorithms to find such rare motifs. We demonstrate that under reasonable assumptions we must abandon any hope of an exact solution to the motif problem as it is normally defined; however, we introduce algorithms that allow us to solve the underlying problem with high probability.
In REF , Begum et al. use MK Motif discovery algorithm to find the rare motifs.
