arXiv:2607. 12171v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In rectified-flow-based generative models, the neural network can be trained to predict two different targets, such as the instantaneous velocity or the data endpoint, to perform denoising.
arXiv:2606. 05264v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training robust multivariate time series forecasting models requires large, diverse corpora, yet many real-world domains provide only a handful of observed sequences.
arXiv:2606. 10466v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In time-series generation, existing approaches typically handcraft ortrain a separate model for each dataset, which hinders their scalability and fails to leverage shared temporal structures across domains.
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.

The paper presents an empirical benchmark of nine modern deep‑learning models for time‑series forecasting of smart‑meter energy consumption, evaluated on two publicly available datasets. It examines how historical input length, prediction horizon, and model architecture affect accuracy, finding that longer historical context improves performance up to a saturation point and that accuracy declines with longer horizons. The study also compares computational complexity, showing that lightweight architectures achieve similar performance to heavier models, and notes that model choice has limited impact across most demographic and household subgroups.
