This study proposes an innovative trend-aligned feature correlation matching method (TAFC), which breaks through the limitations of traditional correlation analysis. TAFC adopts a sophisticated data preprocessing process and introduces two unique metrics: trend overlap index metric (Q) and numerical correlation metric (P). The P metric effectively captures the numerical correlation between data by combining the normalized difference measurement (NDM) and the Pearson correlation coefficient. In addition, TAFC also introduces a custom granular smoothing mechanism to balance trend feature preservation and noise suppression, aiming to comprehensively evaluate the multi-dimensional and multi-granular correlation of time series data. This study uses simulated scenario data based on chi-square distribution and multimodal distribution for experimental verification, and the verification range includes 36 sets of simulation data. The results show that this method can significantly distinguish data sets with different trend characteristics. The introduction of granularity has been verified to help make trend features more explicit. At the same time, when 5% random noise is introduced, the algorithm error is controlled within 5.60%-12.24%. This study provides a novel and accurate method for computer-aided time series data analysis, which has important application value. ## Links ### SPIE Digital Library https://www.spiedigitallibrary.org/conference-proceedings-of-spie/13550/1355007/Trend-aligned-feature-correlation--holistic-feature-relevance-metric-on/10.1117/12.3059782.short ### Harvard ADS https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2025SPIE13550E..07H Last modification:October 31, 2025 © Allow specification reprint Support Appreciate the author AliPayWeChat Like If you think my article is useful to you, please feel free to appreciate
