The paper introduces a hybrid attention model that learns a unified time‑aware patch representation for irregular multivariate time series (IMTS) forecasting. It employs a time‑aware patch encoding to embed variable‑length intra‑patch timestamps, a time bias attention mechanism to adjust for temporal misalignment and asynchronous cross‑channel dependencies, and a hybrid causal mask on a decoder‑only Transformer to balance historical context with autoregressive forecasting. The authors also curate VersaTSA, a 30 B‑observation dataset preserving native sampling sparsity, and demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art zero‑shot performance on three IMTS benchmarks while remaining competitive on regular MTS tasks.

The paper introduces the Masked Diffusion Time-series Imputation Model (MDTIM), which uses a masked diffusion training paradigm to directly predict original values for time series imputation. It separates missing and observed data via a MASK token and employs Stochastic Discretization to convert continuous values into ordinal-aware tokens, preserving temporal dynamics. Experiments on multiple benchmarks show that MDTIM outperforms existing deterministic and generative baselines in robustness and scalability across various missing data scenarios.
