Simulated and real datacubes for developing and testing changepoint algorithms for spatially correlated, short and noisy time-series

A set of datacubes where z-dimension is time, thus each (x,y,.) is a timeseries. The idea is to detect sudden changes in each series, assuming 1) the series can be quite short and noisy 2) the change occurs in spatial patches. The set has synthetic examples with known change-events, and a real-world dataset with unknown change-events. The data files are related to the pape
