Data analysis representation of the product space

This section presents several ways of representing the product space accounting for the temporal nature of the TDS signal. 

Parameters can also be directly extracted from the TDS curves. Pineau et al. (2009) used three parameters in order to compare TDS curves to TI curves  

Many other parameters used for TI curves or adapted from TI curves were also used for TDS curves (Fig. 13.9), such as the area under the curve (AUC), the AUC above the significance limit (area above significance AAS), the first (respectively the last) time at which an attribute reaches the significance limit (Tfirst and Hast) and the duration of significant dominance (Duration).
