SMart is a new time series representation learning framework that combines a multi-phase recurrence plot recovery task with a source dataset selector. The recovery task uses three alternative modes to guide the encoder in capturing time series dynamics, while the selector chooses multiple suitable source datasets to augment the target dataset during pre‑training. Experiments demonstrate that SMart surpasses state‑of‑the‑art models, reducing mean absolute error by up to 19.5% in regression and increasing classification accuracy by up to 1.34%.
