arXiv:2606. 10678v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Transformer-based models have emerged as leading paradigms in time-series forecasting in recent years, employing self-attention mechanisms to capture long-range dependencies.
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.
VertiFuseX is a hybrid LSTM architecture that fuses multi‑scale temporal representations at the penultimate layer, stacking features from LSTM, Bi‑LSTM, and St‑LSTM branches and a parallel DNN stream. On 15 years of global equity index data, it reduces MAPE by 30‑54% and improves MAE and RMSE by over 40% compared to LSTM baselines, outperforming seven state‑of‑the‑art models across 33 metric‑dataset comparisons. The model is lightweight (675k parameters, 2.6 MB footprint) with 1.5 ms/sample inference latency and demonstrates robust, interpretable forecasting with reduced drawdowns in algorithmic trading simulations.
arXiv:2503. 18970v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Structured State Space Models (SSMs) have become a prominent class of sequence models, developed against two long-standing difficulties: the sequential computation and gradient propagation limits of Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs), and the quadratic time and memory cost of self-attention in Transformers.
arXiv:2510. 04487v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While accuracy is a critical requirement for time series forecasting, an equally important desideratum is reasonable forecast volatility across forecast creation dates (FCDs).
arXiv:2604. 16325v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Multivariate time series forecasting is fundamental to numerous domains such as energy, finance, and environmental monitoring, where complex temporal dependencies and cross-variable interactions pose enduring challenges.
