New ATEMPO model accurately identifies optimal time lags for time series analysis

Researchers have developed ATEMPO, a novel diffusion-based transfer entropy estimator designed to accurately identify the optimal time lags for information transfer between time series. Unlike traditional methods that require multiple fits for different lags and depths, ATEMPO amortizes this process, allowing a single model to estimate the entire transfer entropy surface. This approach significantly reduces computational cost and improves accuracy in lag detection, achieving near-perfect accuracy on synthetic datasets and maintaining performance on time-varying lags. The application of ATEMPO in downstream forecasting tasks, such as weather prediction and brain-computer interfaces, has demonstrated notable improvements in accuracy and efficiency. AI

IMPACT Improves accuracy and efficiency in time series forecasting and analysis, potentially benefiting fields like finance, climate science, and neuroscience.

    ATEMPO: Amortized Transfer Entropy Model Per-lag Over-Time

    arXiv:2610.36536v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: When one time series informs another, the delay at which that information arrives determines if models can utilize this relationship effectively. A source may be strongly predictive at one delay but uninformative at neighboring lags…
