A Time-Aware Bag-of-Receptive-Fields for Interpretable Irregular Time Series Classification

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.

Neuralized Multi-Wavelet Decomposition for Time Series Classification and Forecasting

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.

Neuralized Multi-Wavelet Decomposition for Time Series Classification and Forecasting

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.
