Feature selection can help address this issue by selecting the most informative variables in the temporal and feature dimensions. However, selecting the right features can be challenging for time series models. Embedded feature selection has been a popular approach, but many techniques do not include it in their design, including deep learning methods, which can lead to less efficient and effective feature selection. This paper presents a deep learning-based method for time series forecasting that incorporates feature selection to improve model efficacy and interpretability. The proposed method uses a multidimensional layer to remove irrelevant features along the temporal dimension. The resulting model is compared to several feature selection methods and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed approach can improve forecasting accuracy while reducing model complexity.","url_abs":"https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-031-43078-7_2","url_pdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/978-3-031-43078-7.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"abstracts"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"embedded-temporal-feature-selection-for-time","repo_url":"https://github.com/manjimnav/TSSLayer","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":0,"framework":"tf","reach":null}],"tasks":[{"task_slug":"deep-learning","task_name":"Deep Learning"},{"task_slug":"multivariate-time-series-forecasting","task_name":"Multivariate Time Series Forecasting"},{"task_slug":"time-series-1","task_name":"Time Series"},{"task_slug":"time-series-forecasting","task_name":"Time Series Forecasting"},{"task_slug":"feature-selection","task_name":"feature selection"}],"methods":[{"method_slug":"feature-selection","method_name":"Feature Selection"}],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"syntology_url":null,"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
