“…The reverse of its time series X is X = 0, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 0, 0, 4, 7, 4, 4, 2, 0, 0, 4, 4 and has the signature S mir = '<=====>=<<>=>>=<=', which we will call the mirror of the original signature S. The automaton of Figure 2 returns the same value whether it consumes a signature or its mirror: the peaks of X are the reverses of the peaks of X and the aggregation of their feature values is the same because all the operators φ f and φ g are commutative. We have this property for 19 of the 20 regular expressions in [5]. The idea now is to derive an implied constraint, which we will call a glue constraint, between the three accumulator triples of such an automaton after it has consumed (i) a signature w, (ii) a prefix w 1 of w, and (iii) the mirror of the corresponding suffix w 2 of w. For instance, let us split S into the prefix P = '=>=<<=<' and the suffix T = '>>=<=====>', which has the mirror T mir = '<=====>=<<'.…”
