Abstract

Study of dynamic processes in many areas of science has led to the appearance of functional data sets. It is often the case that individual trajectories vary both in the amplitude space and in the time space. We develop a coherent clustering procedure that allows for temporal aligning. Under this framework, closed form solutions of an EM type learning algorithm are derived. The method can be applied to all types of curve data but is particularly useful when phase variation is present. We demonstrate the method by both simulation studies and an application to human growth curves.
