arXiv:2607. 07258v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In many realistic scenarios, large volumes of time series data are generated with limited or expensive annotations.
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.
In many realistic scenarios, large volumes of time series data are generated with limited or expensive annotations. This limitation makes supervised learning methods difficult to apply and leads to the use of unsupervised approaches capable of discovering meaningful structures directly from raw data.

arXiv:2602. 08638v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: As a fundamental data mining task, unsupervised time series anomaly detection (TSAD) aims to build a model for identifying abnormal timestamps without assuming the availability of annotations.
The paper introduces XACT, a framework that learns sparse attribution masks over coefficients from any invertible time‑frequency transform, such as STFT, continuous wavelet transform, and discrete wavelet transform. XACT extends the virtual inspection layer approach to wavelet transforms, enabling Layer‑wise Relevance Propagation (LRP) to generate explanations in these representations. Experiments on synthetic and two real‑world datasets show that XACT produces precise, sparse, and structured explanations, often outperforming baseline methods in highlighting relevant features.
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. 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.
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.
