A Novel Hyperdimensional Computing Framework for Online Time Series Forecasting on the Edge

원문 초록

In recent years, both online and offline deep learning models have been developed for time series forecasting. However, offline deep forecasting models fail to adapt effectively to changes in time-series data, while online deep forecasting models are often expensive and have complex training procedures. In this paper, we reframe the online nonlinear time-series forecasting problem as one of linear hyperdimensional time-series forecasting. Nonlinear low-dimensional time-series data is mapped to high-dimensional (hyperdimensional) spaces for linear hyperdimensional prediction, allowing fast, efficient and lightweight online time-series forecasting. Our framework, TSF-HD, adapts to time-series distribution shifts using a novel co-training framework for its hyperdimensional mapping and its linear hyperdimensional predictor. TSF-HD is shown to outperform the state of the art, while having reduced inference latency, for both short-term and long-term time series forecasting.
