From Hawkes Processes to Attention: Time-Modulated Mechanisms for Event Sequences

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2601.09220v2 Announce Type: replace Marked Temporal Point Processes (MTPPs) arise naturally in medical, social, commercial, and financial domains. However, existing Transformer-based methods mostly inject temporal information only via positional encodings, relying on shared or parametric decay structures, which limits their ability to capture heterogeneous and type-specific temporal effects.
