fastdtw as SVM kernel #24

Open mohsin671 opened 5 years ago

Can I use this fastdtw as a custom kernel to SKlearn SVM classifier?

I do not think it is valid to use DTW as a kernel function, although it could return a value.

I found a paper by googling. Although I did not read it, it might be informative.
