Research Experiences

Graph Representation Learning for Time Series Forecasting

Research Assistant at Machine Learning and Robotics Group, Advisor: Prof. Xiao-Jun Zeng

University of Manchester, Manchester, UK, Oct. 2020 - Present

  • Proposed weighting scheme for time series encoding by mapping binary relations into weighted networks, which overcomes information loss of graph mapping.

  • Extended single-layer graph to multiplex networks, and introduced intra-layer and inter-layer similarities to extracts past and recent sequential knowledge.

  • Introduced ProbAttention mechanism to evaluate probabilistic attention distribution for multi-variate long-term sequence modeling and forecasting.
