New STAIR training method boosts simple models for time series forecasting

Researchers have introduced STAIR, a novel training paradigm designed to enhance the performance of simple models in long-term time series forecasting. This method decomposes the forecasting process into three stages: learning shared temporal dynamics, adapting to variable-specific patterns, and incorporating cross-variable information through residual learning. Experiments on nine benchmarks demonstrate that STAIR matches or surpasses existing strong baselines while maintaining a simple temporal backbone, offering an effective approach for complex forecasting tasks.

    Three-Stage Learning Unlocks Strong Performance in Simple Models for Long-Term Time Series Forecasting

    Recent studies on long-term time series forecasting have shown that simple linear models and MLP-based predictors can achieve strong performance without increasingly complex architectures. However, many competitive baselines still rely on structural priors such as frequency-domai…
