Accurate and Efficient Multi-Channel Time Series Forecasting via Sparse Attention Mechanism

ArXi:2603.18712v1 Announce Type: new The task of multi-channel time series forecasting is ubiquitous in numerous fields such as finance, supply chain management, and energy planning. It is critical to effectively capture complex dynamic dependencies within and between channels for accurate predictions. However, traditional method paid few attentions on learning the interaction among channels. This paper proposes Linear-Network (Li-Net), a novel architecture designed for multi-channel time series forecasting that captures the linear and non-linear dependencies among channels.
