Researchers have introduced Two-stage Odd Residual Flows (TORF), a novel framework designed to improve probabilistic time series forecasting. TORF addresses the common challenge of balancing distributional flexibility with accurate mean prediction. It achieves this by first using a pre-trained deterministic model for precise mean forecasting and then employing a Restricted Normalizing Flow to learn flexible residual distributions, ensuring the initial mean prediction is preserved without the need for sampling.
