How to find similarity of two series over time containing periodic trends?












1












$begingroup$


Considering the data is received from a streaming source each second.How to distinguish if both the line graphs 'look' same/different in real time, statically, like the picture given below
enter image description here





Edit:

1.Not sure if there is something as real-time periodic correlation mechanism then cross-correlation would perhaps be an ideal solution ?

2. Comparing slope of the two Line is the last option I would go with.
3. If statistically there is no way to solve this then I would look at machine learning to solve this

          I am unsure on how to do this statistically apart from using the slope. However, there are some interesting ways to think about time series in a given time period to find similarity. You could do as follows:




          1. Use the characteristics of the signal in a given time window and construct an n dimensional vector.

          2. You could use similarity measures or distance measures like cosine, manhattan etc to evaluate the similarity between them.

            I am not quite sure, maybe finding the average of the slope and comparing helps. Here is how you could find the average of the slope : searchink.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/PROJ/pages/282329252/… I still think finding a vector representation and using other metrics/measures will help you evaluate this better.
