CoRA: Boosting Time Series Foundation Models for Multivariate Forecasting through Correlation-aware Adapter

ICLR 2026poster

Most existing Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) use channel independent modeling and focus on capturing and generalizing temporal dependencies, while neglecting the correlations among channels or overlook the different aspects of correlations. However, these correlations play a vital role in Mul…

Learning to Factorize Spatio-Temporal Foundation Models

NeurIPS 2025spotlight

Spatio-Temporal Foundation Models (STFMs) promise zero/few-shot generalization across various datasets, yet joint spatio-temporal pretraining is computationally prohibitive and struggles with domain-specific spatial correlations. To this end, we introduce FactoST, a factorized STFM that decouples un…

SMARTformer: Semi-Autoregressive Transformer with Efficient Integrated Window Attention for Long Time Series Forecasting

IJCAI 2023poster

The success of Transformers in long time series forecasting (LTSF) can be attributed to their attention mechanisms and non-autoregressive (NAR) decoder structures, which capture long-range de- pendencies. However, time series data also contain abundant local temporal dependencies, which are often ov…
