Wavelet Flow Matching for Time Series

The paper introduces Wavelet Flow Matching, a method for generating multivariate time series by applying flow matching to multilevel discrete wavelet coefficients. By working in the wavelet domain, the model captures coarse-to-fine temporal structure implicitly and uses a channel-token transformer to model cross-channel dependencies. Experiments on seven benchmark datasets and four sequence lengths show that the approach matches or surpasses existing methods, especially in Context-FID and discriminative score metrics.

CPDA: Class-Conditional Path Distribution Alignment for Unsupervised Time-Series Domain Adaptation

arXiv:2608. 09193v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Unsupervised time-series domain adaptation (DA) addresses the challenge of transferring a classifier from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain under distribution shifts induced by different users, sensors, devices, acquisition conditions, or temporal dynamics.

Neuralized Multi-Wavelet Decomposition for Time Series Classification and Forecasting

The paper introduces m-WCN, an end‑to‑end deep learning framework that neuralizes multi‑wavelet decomposition to jointly extract temporal patterns and frequency components from time series. Two task‑specific architectures built on m‑WCN—TFBC for classification and FTB for forecasting—are shown to outperform baseline models on 64 UCR datasets and seven forecasting benchmarks, achieving average improvements of nearly 20% in both tasks. The approach leverages trainable convolutional operators and orthogonality constraints to produce interpretable multi‑resolution representations.

WinoTS: Wavelet-based Self-Distillation for Time Series Models

WinoTS introduces a wavelet‑based self‑distillation framework for time‑series models that uses time‑frequency augmentations to create multi‑scale structural views, avoiding distortion of signal dynamics. The method outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines in long‑term forecasting, cross‑domain zero‑shot transfer, and unsupervised anomaly detection, and linear probing on frozen representations often beats fully supervised training from scratch. Ablation studies show WinoTS is architecture‑agnostic and demonstrates that time‑frequency transformations offer a principled alternative to vision‑style spatial augmentations.

SMart: A Multi-source Multi-phase Time Series Representation Transfer Framework

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%.

Time series generation with spectrally aligned latent flow matching

The paper introduces a spectrally-aligned latent-flow model for time‑series generation that trains the latent space to preserve dynamical properties relevant to synthetic data quality. By incorporating fine‑tuning losses based on Fourier, wavelet, and signature transforms, the method mitigates spectral mismatches caused by latent compression and ensures alignment with true signals in terms of smoothness and targeted spectral content. Experiments on real‑world long‑range univariate and multivariate benchmarks show that the aligned model outperforms a base latent‑flow model and state‑of‑the‑art approaches in signal realism, computational efficiency, and local structure alignment.

PaAno: Patch-Based Representation Learning for Time-Series Anomaly Detection

arXiv:2602. 01359v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Although recent studies on time-series anomaly detection have increasingly adopted ever-larger neural network architectures such as transformers and foundation models, they incur high computational costs and memory usage, making them impractical for real-time and resource-constrained scenarios.

Neuralized Multi-Wavelet Decomposition for Time Series Classification and Forecasting

The paper introduces m-WCN, an end‑to‑end deep learning framework that neuralizes multi‑wavelet decomposition to jointly extract temporal patterns and frequency components from time series. It enforces orthogonality constraints to produce interpretable multi‑resolution representations, and builds two task‑specific architectures—TFBC for classification and FTB for forecasting—on top of this foundation. Experiments on 64 UCR datasets and seven forecasting benchmarks show that TFBC and FTB outperform baseline models, achieving average improvements of about 20% in both classification and forecasting tasks.
