CARE: A Lightweight Plug-in Gated Correction and Uncertainty-aware Module for Long-term Time Series Forecasting

CARE is a lightweight plug‑in module that can be added to any deterministic time‑series forecaster. It resamples historical data to align with the forecast horizon, learns residual corrections, and applies scale‑aware bounded updates controlled by per‑coordinate sigmoid risk gates. The module is trained with a multi‑objective loss to improve accuracy, track residuals, align risk, and anchor the base model, and it demonstrates accuracy gains on eight benchmarks with minimal extra parameters or latency.

GateTS: Versatile and Efficient Forecasting via Attention-Inspired routed Mixture-of-Experts

GateTS introduces a streamlined univariate forecasting model that merges sparse Mixture-of-Experts computation with an attention-inspired gating mechanism, eliminating the need for auxiliary load‑balancing losses. The architecture achieves superior predictive accuracy across both short‑ and long‑term horizons, including intermittent signals, while using far fewer parameters than leading transformer models such as PatchTST. Empirical tests on diverse datasets show GateTS is computationally more efficient than LSTM, enabling cost‑effective inference for real‑world time‑series applications.

SACQ: Structured Decoding with Memory-Conditioned Refinement for Long-Horizon Forecasting

SACQ introduces a structured prediction head for long‑horizon time‑series forecasting that replaces the traditional flatten readout. It uses a two‑stage decoding process: a coarse patch‑grid scaffold is first generated, then each future position is refined via cross‑attention over historical memory, with a learned gate merging the corrections. A batch‑adaptive scaled log‑cosh loss further stabilizes training under long horizons and noisy labels, leading to superior MSE/MAE performance across multiple backbones with minimal overhead.
