This document proposes a compressed learning framework for time series classification using sparse envelope representations. It introduces compressed sensing concepts and describes creating a sparse envelope for time series by thresholding around the mean and standard deviation. A classification framework is developed using linear SVMs in the compressed domain. Experimental results on benchmark datasets demonstrate effectiveness of the envelope representations compared to state-of-the-art methods, as well as efficiency gains from compression. Real-world case studies on smart home applications show promising identification performance from envelope-based classifiers on sensor time series data.
