Missing value imputation on multidimensional time series

We present DeepMVI, a deep learning method for missing value imputation in multidimensional time-series datasets. Missing values are commonplace decision support platforms that aggregate data over long time stretches from disparate sources, whereas reliable analytics calls careful handling of data. One strategy is imputing the values, and wide variety algorithms exist spanning simple interpolation, matrix factorization methods like SVD, statistical models Kalman filters, recent methods. show often these provide worse results on compared to just excluding DeepMVI expresses distribution each conditioned coarse fine-grained signals along series, correlated series at same time. Instead resorting linearity assumptions conventional methods, harnesses flexible network extract combine an end-to-end manner. To prevent over-fitting with high-capacity neural networks, we design robust parameter training labeled created using synthetic blocks around available indices. Our uses modular novel temporal transformer convolutional features, kernel regression learned embeddings. Experiments across ten real datasets, five different scenarios, comparing seven three significantly more accurate, reducing error by than 50% half cases, best existing method. Although slower simpler justify increased overheads showing provides accurate finally impacts quality downstream analytics.
