The paper introduces a hybrid attention model that learns a unified time‑aware patch representation for irregular multivariate time series (IMTS) forecasting. It employs a time‑aware patch encoding to embed variable‑length intra‑patch timestamps, a time bias attention mechanism to adjust for temporal misalignment and asynchronous cross‑channel dependencies, and a hybrid causal mask on a decoder‑only Transformer to balance historical context with autoregressive forecasting. The authors also curate VersaTSA, a 30 B‑observation dataset preserving native sampling sparsity, and demonstrate state‑of‑the‑art zero‑shot performance on three IMTS benchmarks while remaining competitive on regular MTS tasks.
arXiv:2508. 07195v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances have demonstrated that Large Language Models (LLMs) can be effectively adapted for time series forecasting, revealing strong potential beyond natural language tasks.
arXiv:2607. 07640v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep learning has significantly advanced time series imputation, yet most existing architectures primarily rely on localized temporal context within the corrupted input sequence.
The paper introduces DNBNet, a Debiased Neural Basis-Function Network designed for irregular time series forecasting. It addresses two main limitations of existing methods: asymptotic bias from ignoring timestamp sampling density and limited adaptability of predefined basis functions. DNBNet employs importance sampling to correct bias, neural‑network parameterized basis functions for flexibility, a multi‑scale decomposition with mass‑aware fusion for sparse data, and a dual‑branch decoder, achieving strong performance across diverse real‑world datasets.
arXiv:2608. 06223v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: While deep learning models, particularly transformer-based architectures, have shown impressive performance in time series forecasting, the application of retrieval-augmented generation (RAG) in this domain remains limited.
arXiv:2511. 20577v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Real-world time series often exhibit strong non-stationarity, complex nonlinear dynamics, and behavior expressed across multiple temporal scales, from rapid local fluctuations to slow-evolving long-range trends.
