This iSAX 2.0 paper seems to be from 2010, so the HN title should probably be changed.

The first iSAX paper was from 2008, and there's a page here about it:

The list of "selected" publications by Eamonn Keogh is a whole lot of fun:

iSAX was an improvement over simple SAX indexing scheme that was known since 2005 or so.
My failing meatware recollection said 2001-ish, maybe earlier, but it seems I'm wrong according to this:

:)) great Themis! super teacher
Interesting coincidence. We just went over this paper last month in our white paper group.
Does anyone know of any code for iSAX that isn't in C# or Java? I'd quite like to get stuck in but right now I'm using Python. I've got SAX set up but getting the iSAX indexing will take some time.
