GroupSegment-SHAP: Shapley Value Explanations with Group-Segment Players for Multivariate Time Series

GroupSegment-SHAP (GS‑SHAP) introduces explanatory units called group‑segment players that capture cross‑variable dependence and distribution shifts over time in multivariate time‑series models. By attributing Shapley values to these units, GS‑SHAP preserves joint structural signals that traditional time‑series SHAP variants fragment. Experiments on human activity recognition, power‑system forecasting, medical signal analysis, and financial time series show that GS‑SHAP improves deletion‑based faithfulness by about 1.7× and reduces runtime by roughly 40% compared to existing baselines, while a financial case study demonstrates its ability to reveal interpretable multivariate‑temporal interactions during high‑volatility periods.

Global Explanations for Multivariate Time Series Forecasting Models via $K$-Order Markov Approximations

arXiv:2606. 27599v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While many explainable AI (XAI) methods have been proposed, most are not designed for time-series forecasting models and often rely on the implicit assumption that timestamp features are independent.

Estimating Mutual Information between Time Series and Temporal Event Sequences Across Diverse Analysis Tasks

arXiv:2606. 01602v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Pairwise dependence measures such as correlation and causality are fundamental to temporal data mining, yet there is still no principled and robust way to quantify dependence between heterogeneous data types, especially between continuous time series and discrete temporal event sequences.
