Teger: Spatiotemporal Covariance for Probabilistic Traffic Forecasting

Read the original on arXiv AI →

The paper introduces TEGER, a residual covariance model that updates a forecaster’s joint predictive uncertainty at test time using closed‑form Gaussian conditioning on recent residuals and an exponential moving‑average volatility term. It leverages a fixed sensor graph to encode spatial correlations without retraining the underlying forecasting backbone. Experiments on four traffic datasets show significant improvements in 60‑minute CRPS, and applying TEGER to a frozen foundation model (Chronos) reduces CRPS from 0.1798 to 0.1736.

RiskTraf: Risk-Extrapolated Residual Learning for Multi-Variate Traffic Flow Prediction

RiskTraf introduces a risk-extrapolated residual learning approach for multi-variate traffic flow prediction, leveraging raw flow, speed, and occupancy data from the new PEMSB-3V benchmark. The method freezes a trained spatio-temporal backbone and adds a lightweight residual head that learns from historical speed and occupancy to correct flow predictions across different traffic regimes. Experiments show consistent improvements over various backbones and outperform existing debiasing and distribution-shift adaptation techniques.

The Future Is Finer: Multivariate Time Series Super-Resolution Forecasting

The paper introduces Multivariate Time Series Super-Resolution Forecasting (MTS‑SRF), a method that predicts fine‑grained future values from coarse historical data. It proposes the TimeMagnifier framework, which includes Fourier Anchor to handle data sparsity, De‑noise Only to refine predictions along the resolution axis, and banded DTW Alignment to correct cross‑resolution misalignment. On a new benchmark of ten datasets across five domains, TimeMagnifier outperforms 15 baselines, reducing mean‑squared error by an average of 12.3% and improving existing forecasters by 5.1% to 9.0% when its components are used as plug‑ins.
