• Authors: Ning Ning
• Abstract summary: We propose a general Bayesian dimension reduction methodology for feature selection in high-dimensional joint quantile time series analysis. The QFSTS model is a general structural time series model, where each component yields an additive contribution to the time series modeling. The QFSTS model has superior performance in feature selection, parameter estimation, and forecast.

• Abstract: Quantile feature selection over correlated multivariate time series data has always been a methodological challenge and is an open problem. In this paper, we propose a general Bayesian dimension reduction methodology for feature selection in high-dimensional joint quantile time series analysis, under the name of the quantile feature selection time series (QFSTS) model. The QFSTS model is a general structural time series model, where each component yields an additive contribution to the time series modeling with direct interpretations. Its flexibility is compound in the sense that users can add/deduct components for each time series and each time series can have its own specific valued components of different sizes. Feature selection is conducted in the quantile regression component, where each time series has its own pool of contemporaneous external predictors allowing nowcasting. Bayesian methodology in extending feature selection to the quantile time series research area is developed using multivariate asymmetric Laplace distribution, spike-and-slab prior setup, the Metropolis-Hastings algorithm, and the Bayesian model averaging technique, all implemented consistently in the Bayesian paradigm. The QFSTS model requires small datasets to train and converges fast. Extensive examinations confirmed that the QFSTS model has superior performance in feature selection, parameter estimation, and forecast.

  We propose a neural model that takes randomly sampled histories and outputs an adjustable basis composition as a continuous function of time. It involves three key components: (1) a flexible approach for using randomly sampled histories from a long-tail distribution; (2) a transformer backbone that is trained on these actively sampled histories to produce, as representational output; and (3) the basis coefficients of a continuous function of time.
