• Title: Progressive Neural Network for Multi-Horizon Time Series Forecasting
• Authors: Yang Lin,
• Abstract summary: ProNet is a novel deep learning approach designed for multi-horizon time series forecasting. Our method involves dividing the forecasting horizon into segments, predicting the most crucial steps in each segment non-autoregressively, and the remaining steps autoregressively. In comparison to AR models, ProNet showcases remarkable advantages, requiring fewer AR iterations, resulting in faster prediction speed, and mitigating error accumulation.

• Abstract: In this paper, we introduce ProNet, an novel deep learning approach designed for multi-horizon time series forecasting, adaptively blending autoregressive (AR) and non-autoregressive (NAR) strategies. Our method involves dividing the forecasting horizon into segments, predicting the most crucial steps in each segment non-autoregressively, and the remaining steps autoregressively. The segmentation process relies on latent variables, which effectively capture the significance of individual time steps through variational inference. In comparison to AR models, ProNet showcases remarkable advantages, requiring fewer AR iterations, resulting in faster prediction speed, and mitigating error accumulation. On the other hand, when compared to NAR models, ProNet takes into account the interdependency of predictions in the output space, leading to improved forecasting accuracy. Our comprehensive evaluation, encompassing four large datasets, and an ablation study, demonstrate the effectiveness of ProNet, highlighting its superior performance in terms of accuracy and prediction speed, outperforming state-of-the-art AR and NAR forecasting models.

  We introduce AMLNet, an innovative NAR model that achieves realistic forecasts through an online Knowledge Distillation approach. AMLNet harnesses the strengths of both AR and NAR models by training a deep AR decoder and a deep NAR decoder in a collaborative manner. This knowledge transfer is facilitated through two key mechanisms: 1) outcome-driven KD, which dynamically weights the contribution of KD losses from the teacher models, enabling the shallow NAR decoder to incorporate the ensemble's diversity; and 2) hint-driven KD, which employs adversarial training to extract valuable insights from the model's hidden states for distillation.
