 6. Time series archive
 ++++++++++++++++++++++

   Various datasets of time series (to be used for prediction learning
   problems) are available for anonymous ftp from ftp.santafe.edu
   [192.12.12.1] in /pub/Time-Series". Problems are for example:
   fluctuations in a far-infrared laser; Physiological data of patients
   with sleep apnea; High frequency currency exchange rate data;
   Intensity of a white dwarf star; J.S. Bachs final (unfinished) fugue
   from "Die Kunst der Fuge"

   Some of the datasets were used in a prediction contest and are
   described in detail in the book "Time series prediction: Forecasting
   the future and understanding the past", edited by
   Weigend/Gershenfield, Proceedings Volume XV in the Santa Fe
   Institute Studies in the Sciences of Complexity series of Addison
   Wesley (1994).
