Probabilistic Time Series Forecasting with 🤗 Transformers

A Benchmark for Electrical Load Forecasting Across Grid Levels: Time-Series Transformers Outperform Established Methods

arXiv:2607. 15705v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate load forecasting at multiple grid levels is essential for future smart grids, ranging from aggregated control area forecasts for balancing supply and demand to forecasts of individual end-consumer loads for demand-side management and energy management systems.

Hopformer: Homogeneity-Pursuit Transformer for Time Series Forecasting

arXiv:2607. 22299v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Forecasting multiple time-series with high-dimensional covariates presents a core challenge: unifying common temporal patterns while retaining meaningful series-specific information.
