RDDMPI introduces a residual denoising diffusion model for multivariate time series imputation. By decomposing the missing signal into a baseline reconstruction and a residual uncertainty component, the method conditions the diffusion process on both the completed signal and its latent representation, using a reliability-aware mechanism to balance baseline influence. Experiments on benchmark datasets show that this approach improves reconstruction accuracy and uncertainty quantification compared to prior diffusion-based methods.

The paper introduces AmazonSWE, a dataset covering over 19,000 river sections in the Amazon basin for 10 years (2016‑2026) that integrates satellite altimetry, including SWOT, to enable large‑scale spatiotemporal graph imputation. The dataset is extremely sparse—fewer than 1% of sections are observed daily—and features a directed acyclic river topology that is larger and structurally distinct from existing benchmarks. The authors demonstrate that conventional imputation methods struggle with this topology, scale, and sparsity, and propose a bidirectional selective state‑space model that outperforms prior approaches, reducing RMSE against in‑situ gauges by 18‑39% and providing predictions for every river section.
whyItMatters":"AmazonSWE offers a novel, real‑world use case that could improve flood forecasting and water resource management by enabling more accurate and comprehensive water surface elevation estimates across a vast, sparsely monitored river network."

The paper introduces the Masked Diffusion Time-series Imputation Model (MDTIM), which uses a masked diffusion training paradigm to directly predict original values for time series imputation. It separates missing and observed data via a MASK token and employs Stochastic Discretization to convert continuous values into ordinal-aware tokens, preserving temporal dynamics. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that MDTIM outperforms existing deterministic and generative baselines in robustness and scalability across various missing data scenarios.
