<p>I have trouble finding relevant research in a specific sub-field. Is it off topic for Cross Validated to either ask for such research or ask for help in finding it? How could I make it a better fit for the site instead of just a lazy cry for help?</p>
<p>The field itself is relevant to Cross Validated. I would be asking about time series literature, specifically related to the behavior of time series features when it comes to shortening or lengthening the series.</p>
