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 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.

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.
The paper introduces a Time-Aware Bag-of-Receptive-Fields (BORF) for classifying irregular time series, extending the original BORF to handle non-uniform sampling, missing data, and variable lengths. It adds a time-weighted normalization that weights observations by their time deltas, enabling pattern extraction that reflects the true temporal distribution. The method maintains linear time complexity and is evaluated against state‑of‑the‑art irregular time‑series classifiers, achieving competitive performance while providing human‑interpretable explanations.
