• Abstract: Time series forecasting has become a critical task due to its high practicality in real-world applications such as traffic, energy consumption, economics and finance, and disease analysis. Recent deep-learning-based approaches have shown remarkable success in time series forecasting. Nonetheless, due to the dynamics of time series data, deep networks still suffer from unstable training and overfitting. Inconsistent patterns appearing in real-world data lead the model to be biased to a particular pattern, thus limiting the generalization. In this work, we introduce the dynamic error bounds on training loss to address the overfitting issue in time series forecasting. Consequently, we propose a regularization method called WaveBound which estimates the adequate error bounds of training loss for each time step and feature at each iteration. By allowing the model to focus less on unpredictable data, WaveBound stabilizes the training process, thus significantly improving generalization. With the extensive experiments, we show that WaveBound consistently improves upon the existing models in large margins, including the state-of-the-art model.

  Time series forecasting has been a widely explored task of great importance in many applications. It is common that real-world time series data are recorded in a short time period, which results in a big gap between the deep model and the limited and noisy time series. We propose to address the time series forecasting problem with generative modeling and propose a bidirectional variational auto-encoder equipped with diffusion, denoise, and disentanglement.

  In the presence of noise and uncertainty, neural network models tend to replicate the last observed value of the time series.

Our results indicate that the regularization term mitigates to some extent the aforementioned problem and gives rise to more robust models.
