Fine-grained energy consumption data are essential for applications such as demand forecasting, demand response planning, and grid reliability assessment. However, access to such data is often restricted by privacy concerns and data-sharing constraints, motivating growing interest in synthetic energy data generation.
CAST is a framework for generating anomalous time series that addresses the scarcity and heterogeneity of anomaly data. It uses a two‑stage approach: pretraining on abundant normal data to learn system dynamics, then finetuning with anomaly structure representations to capture diverse anomaly morphologies. Experiments on real‑world datasets show that CAST outperforms existing methods in both generation quality and downstream task performance.

The paper introduces a statistical feature augmentation technique that encodes behavioral interaction statistics into the input space for dynamic graph anomaly detection. Experiments on Reddit, Wikipedia, and MOOC datasets across seven models—both continuous-time and discrete-time—show that this augmentation consistently improves detection performance compared to models trained on original embeddings. The enriched input also facilitates fine-grained post-hoc analysis of behavioral importance, linking classical network analysis with deep learning.
LoaDiff is a diffusion-based generative model that produces year-long, sub-hourly smart‑meter electricity consumption time series. It can be conditioned on static household attributes like appliance ownership and dynamic factors such as calendar dates and outdoor temperature. Evaluations on three residential datasets show that LoaDiff generates realistic, diverse load profiles, limits memorization, retains useful information for downstream tasks, and responds coherently to conditioning changes.
