• Abstract summary: Temporal Kolmogorov-Arnold Transformer (TKAT) is a novel attention-based architecture designed to capture temporal patterns in data streams. Inspired by the Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT), TKAT emerges as a powerful encoder-decoder model tailored to handle tasks in which the observed part of the features is more important than the a priori known part.

• Abstract: Capturing complex temporal patterns and relationships within multivariate data streams is a difficult task. We propose the Temporal Kolmogorov-Arnold Transformer (TKAT), a novel attention-based architecture designed to address this task using Temporal Kolmogorov-Arnold Networks (TKANs). Inspired by the Temporal Fusion Transformer (TFT), TKAT emerges as a powerful encoder-decoder model tailored to handle tasks in which the observed part of the features is more important than the a priori known part. This new architecture combined the theoretical foundation of the Kolmogorov-Arnold representation with the power of transformers. TKAT aims to simplify the complex dependencies inherent in time series, making them more "interpretable". The use of transformer architecture in this framework allows us to capture long-range dependencies through self-attention mechanisms.

  Transformer-based time series forecasting has recently gained strong interest due to the ability of transformers to model sequential data. We propose Sentinel, a transformer-based architecture composed of an encoder able to extract contextual information from the channel dimension. We introduce a multi-patch attention mechanism, which leverages the patching process to structure the input sequence in a way that can be naturally integrated into the transformer architecture.

  Self-attention mechanism in Transformer architecture requires positional embeddings to encode temporal order in time series prediction. We argue that this reliance on positional embeddings restricts the Transformer's ability to effectively represent temporal sequences. We present a model integrating PRE with a standard Transformer encoder, demonstrating state-of-the-art performance on various real-world datasets.
