CoMemNet: A Continual Memory Network with Drift-Aware Sampling for Traffic Prediction

CoMemNet is a Continual Memory Network designed for traffic prediction on evolving sensor networks. It combines an online branch that adapts to current data with an exponential‑moving‑average target branch for stable reference, and uses a Wasserstein‑based drift sampler to selectively update drift‑sensitive nodes. A lightweight temporal memory replay buffer stores compact states, allowing efficient adaptation without traversing all historical data. Experiments on PeMS datasets show that CoMemNet maintains stable accuracy and outperforms retraining baselines in both prediction performance and training time.

Continuous Evolution Pool: Taming Recurring Concept Drift in Online Time Series Forecasting

The paper introduces the Continuous Evolution Pool (CEP), a replay‑free framework for online time series forecasting that tackles recurring concept drift. CEP maintains a dynamic pool of specialized forecasters, using lightweight statistical genes to identify concepts, spawn new models when distribution shifts occur, and prune obsolete ones under memory limits. Experiments on real‑world datasets show CEP reduces forecasting error by up to 24% compared to state‑of‑the‑art baselines, especially in scenarios with pronounced recurring drift.

AIGS: Adaptive Incremental Gating System for Online Representation Learning in Non-Stationary Data Streams

The paper introduces AIGS, a lightweight Adaptive Incremental Gating System designed for online representation learning in non‑stationary data streams. AIGS uses a Shock Ratio feedback signal to drive a Continuous Plasticity Controller, enabling smooth adaptation between learning plasticity and memory retention while keeping per‑step complexity linear in the feature dimension. Experiments on smart‑city traffic, meteorological, and industrial datasets show that AIGS improves early‑warning lead times, accelerates recovery after abrupt changes, and enhances anomaly recall in noisy environments.

RiskTraf: Risk-Extrapolated Residual Learning for Multi-Variate Traffic Flow Prediction

RiskTraf introduces a risk-extrapolated residual learning approach for multi-variate traffic flow prediction, leveraging raw flow, speed, and occupancy data from the new PEMSB-3V benchmark. The method freezes a trained spatio-temporal backbone and adds a lightweight residual head that learns from historical speed and occupancy to correct flow predictions across different traffic regimes. Experiments show consistent improvements over various backbones and outperform existing debiasing and distribution-shift adaptation techniques.

When RL Meets Adaptive Speculative Training: A Unified Training-Serving System

arXiv:2602. 06932v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Speculative decoding can significantly accelerate LLM serving, yet most deployments today disentangle speculator training from serving, treating speculator training as a standalone offline modeling problem.
