In-Context Time Series Classification with Random Convolutional Features

Read the original on arXiv Machine Learning →

arXiv:2607. 19234v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time series classification is central to domains like medical signal analysis, industrial monitoring, and sensor-based activity recognition, where class information manifests as localized shapes, specific frequencies, temporal shifts, or complex cross-channel interactions.

ChorusTIC: Training-Free Multivariate Time Series Classification via Chorus In-Context Learning

ChorusTIC is a training‑free foundation model for multivariate time‑series classification that works across heterogeneous channel configurations without updating task‑specific parameters. It uses Random Subchannel Slot Concatenation and a shared dual‑axis encoder to capture temporal and cross‑channel interactions, mapping variable channel counts into a fixed‑width representation. The model is pretrained on synthetic episodes and achieves strong performance on the UEA‑30 and UCR‑128 archives, handling both full‑context and low‑label scenarios without fitting a target‑specific classifier.

TS2TabPFN: Time Series Classification and Extrinsic Regression through Feature Extraction and a Tabular Foundation Model

Time series data are ubiquitous in practical applications, where classification (TSC) and extrinsic regression (TSER) have emerged as essential tasks for obtaining value from temporal sequences. While the literature has seen significant progress through feature-based and deep learning models, existing methods often focus either on the quality of feature extraction or on the intrinsic predictive power of complex architectures applied to raw data.

SwitchPFN: Shared Switching Dynamics for Frozen In-Context Time Series Classification

SwitchPFN introduces a shared projection and regime codebook for time‑series classification with tabular foundation models, preserving local temporal transitions while ensuring consistent feature definitions across samples. The method outperforms existing representations, achieving the highest mean accuracy on evaluated benchmarks and improving the strongest baseline by 4.47% relative. Ablation, sensitivity, and limited‑data experiments confirm the benefits of the proposed representation design.
