Given the current time series segment, how to retrieve similar segments within the historical data in an efficient and effective manner is becoming increasingly important. As it can facilitate underlying applications such as system status identification, anomaly detection, <em>etc</em>. Despite the fact that various binary coding techniques can be applied to this task, few of them are specially designed for multivariate time series data in an unsupervised setting. To this end, we present Deep Unsupervised Binary Coding Networks (DUBCNs) to perform multivariate time series retrieval. DUBCNs employ the Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) encoder-decoder framework to capture the temporal dynamics within the input segment and consist of three key components, <em>i.e.</em>, a temporal encoding mechanism to capture the temporal order of different segments within a mini-batch, a clustering loss on the hidden feature space to capture the hidden feature structure, and an adversarial loss based upon Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to enhance the generalization capability of the generated binary codes. Thoroughly empirical studies on three public datasets demonstrated that the proposed DUBCNs can outperform state-of-the-art unsupervised binary coding techniques.</p>}, number={02}, journal={Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence}, author={Zhu, Dixian and Song, Dongjin and Chen, Yuncong and Lumezanu, Cristian and Cheng, Wei and Zong, Bo and Ni, Jingchao and Mizoguchi, Takehiko and Yang, Tianbao and Chen, Haifeng}, year={2020}, month={Apr.}, pages={1403-1411} }
