The field of time series forecasting and anomaly detection is rapidly advancing with the development of new models and techniques. Recent research has focused on improving the accuracy and efficiency of forecasting models, particularly in multivariate time series data. The use of transformer-based models has shown promising results, with methods such as delegate token attention and physics-informed attention mechanisms achieving state-of-the-art performance. Additionally, the incorporation of structural similarity and multi-scale feature extraction has improved the detection of anomalies in time series data. Noteworthy papers include FRAUDGUESS, which proposes a novel approach to detecting and explaining new types of fraud in financial data, and Pi-Transformer, which presents a physics-informed transformer for time series anomaly detection. Other notable papers include AdaMixT, which introduces a novel architecture for multivariate time series forecasting, and StrAD, which proposes a structure-enhanced anomaly detection approach.
