Zoltán Gellér, Vladimir Kurbalija, Mirjana Ivanović




Given the exponential growth of data in modern society, data analysis tools have become increasingly pivotal in a wide range of fields, such as business, advertising, economy, medicine, biology, meteorology, astronomy, agriculture, and others. As the time component often plays an essential role in data analysis, the application and research of different methods for examining temporal data is among the current interests of both practitioners and researchers. This paper presents the main capabilities of the Framework for Analysis and Prediction (FAP), a free and open source Java library designed for processing and mining time series data that has been successfully applied both in research and education since its initial presentation.
