1. Open the sidebar by clicking on Menu button.
2. Click on Similarity Generation option.
3. Choose a dataset each from the preloaded datasets from each dropdown menu on the screen.
4. Click Submit button under both menus to confirm your selection.
5. You can also import time series datasets(with timestamp in the first column) by clicking on the Import dataset radio button and pasting the URLs in the text boxes that appear.
6. Click Submit button to confirm your URLs.
7. Click on the generate button and wait for the results to be generated. It may take a while depending on the datasets chosen.
