Scaling Up Heterogeneous Waveform Clustering for Long-Duration Monitoring Signal…

Modern oscilloscopes, digitizers and data loggers generate a large amount of waveform data for long-duration waveform capturing and analysis. The contrast of time scales of long-duration waveform capturing (e.g., hours or days in high sampling rate) and analysis (e.g., signal fragments of several microseconds) produces unique big data challenges.
