Dynamic Hypergraph Representation Learning for Multivariate Time Series without Prior Knowledge

Hypergraphs have the capacity to capture higher-dimensional relationships among entities across various domains, making them a subject of growing interest within the research community for understanding the structure and dynamics of complex systems. However, a key challenge is the derivation of hypergraph representations from time series data in situations where the structure of the hypergraph is limited or absent. In this study, we propose a model that constructs a dynamic hypergraph representation for multivariate time series without relying on prior knowledge of the data. This is achieved by applying community detection to the time series and transforming the resulting communities, obtained through an attention mechanism, into a hypergraph using a clique-based technique. Hypergraph representations are derived from different time series datasets, and the resulting hypergraphs are then used by a Dynamic Hypergraph Attention Convolution Network (DHACN) for multivariate time series predictions. This research advances the field of hypergraph representation by introducing a novel approach that is better suited to uncover high-order relationships without prior knowledge.

Achieving Predictive Precision: Leveraging LSTM and Pseudo Labeling for Volvo's Discovery Challenge at ECML-PKDD 2024

This paper presents the second-place methodology in the Volvo Discovery Challenge at ECML-PKDD 2024, where we used Long Short-Term Memory networks and pseudo-labeling to predict maintenance needs for a component of Volvo trucks. We processed the training data to mirror the test set structure and applied a base LSTM model to label the test data iteratively. This approach refined our model's predictive capabilities and culminated in a macro-average F1-score of 0.879, demonstrating robust performance in predictive maintenance. This work provides valuable insights for applying machine learning techniques effectively in industrial settings.
