TLDR
The dtw package allows R users to compute time series alignments mixing freely a variety of continuity constraints, restriction windows, endpoints, local distance definitions, and so on.
Abstract
Dynamic time warping is a popular technique for comparing time series, providing both a distance measure that is insensitive to local compression and stretches and the warping which optimally deforms one of the two input series onto the other. A variety of algorithms and constraints have been discussed in the literature. The dtw package provides an unification of them; it allows R users to compute time series alignments mixing freely a variety of continuity constraints, restriction windows, endpoints, local distance definitions, and so on. The package also provides functions for visualizing alignments and constraints using several classic diagram types.

Touch me once and i know it's you!: implicit authentication based on touch screen patterns

TL;DR: In this article, an implicit authentication approach that enhances password patterns with an additional security layer, transparent to the user, is introduced, where users are not only authenticated by the shape they input but also by the way they perform the input.

Dynamic programming algorithm optimization for spoken word recognition

TL;DR: This paper reports on an optimum dynamic progxamming (DP) based time-normalization algorithm for spoken word recognition, in which the warping function slope is restricted so as to improve discrimination between words in different categories.
