The paper introduces Error Feedback Calibration (EFC), a test‑time framework that corrects deterministic time‑series forecasts by using revealed errors as causal feedback. EFC builds a Causal Error Diagonal (CED) from overlapping historical forecast errors, applies Cumulative Error Transport (CET) to map this error state to future residuals, and employs Temporal Residual Learning (TRL) to predict remaining residual structure. Experiments across various forecasting backbones and datasets demonstrate that EFC improves performance while limiting over‑correction.

RATL is a plug‑in method for multivariate time‑series forecasting that uses a frozen base forecaster to build a memory of its historical forecast residuals. During inference, RATL retrieves residual trajectories from similar past contexts and employs a set‑aware router to combine them, providing learned feedback correction. Experiments demonstrate that this residual‑retrieval approach improves the performance of the base forecaster across various benchmarks and backbones.

Forecast accuracy does not tell us which past inputs produced a prediction. We separate three questions for time-series models with known delay structure: can the true delay be recovered from the observed data, does the model report it, and does the forecast actually use the same history?
The paper argues that current time‑series forecasting benchmarks are too narrow, rewarding low held‑out error while failing to capture real‑world failure modes such as structured input anomalies, regime shifts, and sensor faults. It proposes scenario‑grounded stress testing, where each test includes historical data, future targets, a semantic scenario, a failure operator, and a difficulty level, to make evaluation interpretable and deployment‑relevant.
arXiv:2608. 10553v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Conformal prediction (CP) provides distribution-free prediction intervals for fixed forecasters, but its standard calibration procedure is often inefficient for time series data, where forecast errors are temporally dependent and change across time and operating conditions.
