| contents | In this paper, a new data-adaptive method, called DAIS (Data Adaptive ISolation), is introduced for the estimation of the number and the location of change-points in a given data sequence. The proposed method can detect changes in various different signal structures; we focus on the examples of piecewise-constant and continuous, piecewise-linear signals. The novelty of the proposed algorithm comes from the data-adaptive nature of the methodology. At each step, and for the data under consideration, we search for the most prominent change-point in a targeted neighborhood of the data sequence that contains this change-point with high probability. Using a suitably chosen contrast function, the change-point will then get detected after being isolated in an interval. The isolation feature enhances estimation accuracy, while the data-adaptive nature of DAIS is advantageous regarding, mainly, computational complexity. The methodology can be applied to both univariate and multivariate signals. The simulation results presented indicate that DAIS is at least as accurate as state-of-the-art competitors and in many cases significantly less computationally expensive. |
