arXiv:2605. 30122v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Deep-learning precipitation nowcasting models are often optimized using pointwise losses such as mean squared error or mean absolute error, which can lead to overly smooth forecasts and poor representation of heavy rainfall.

arXiv:2608. 16864v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In survival analysis the way covariates act on the risk of an event often differs between early and late failure times, yet hazard- and mean-based summaries collapse this variation into a single number.

The paper introduces TQRNN30d, a long‑horizon predictive maintenance model that uses a dual‑stage quantile regression neural network to transform hourly machine data into a 324‑dimensional quantile‑state representation, which is then classified with a multi‑stream temporal fusion architecture. Trained on data from 72 machines across nine facilities, the model achieves high performance at 30‑day horizons (F1 ≈ 80%, recall ≈ 80%, precision ≈ 82%, accuracy ≈ 82%, ROC‑AUC ≈ 0.82) and outperforms 18 baseline methods at 7‑, 14‑, and 30‑day thresholds. The study demonstrates that explicit conditional‑quantile representations can effectively distinguish gradual degradation from normal operation over multi‑day planning windows, though generalisation to unseen sites or equipment remains untested.
