Learnable Dynamic Temporal Pooling for Time Series Classification

With the increase of available time series data, predicting their class labels has been one of the most important challenges in a wide range of disciplines. Recent studies on time series classification show that convolutional neural networks (CNN) achieved the state-of-the-art performance as a single classifier. In this work, pointing out that the global pooling layer that is usually adopted by existing CNN classifiers discards the temporal information of high-level features, we present a dynamic temporal pooling (DTP) technique that reduces the temporal size of hidden representations by aggregating the features at the segment-level. For the partition of a whole series into multiple segments, we utilize dynamic time warping (DTW) to align each time point in a temporal order with the prototypical features of the segments, which can be optimized simultaneously with the network parameters of CNN classifiers. The DTP layer combined with a fully-connected layer helps to extract further discriminative features considering their temporal position within an input time series. Extensive experiments on both univariate and multivariate time series datasets show that our proposed pooling significantly improves the classification performance.

Code

Syntology Ran 9 of 13 code samples harvested from 1 repository linked to this paper; 4 have no recorded run. Of those that ran: 2 ran · fixture could not drive it; 7 ran with no contract checked.

By repository: community (archive-listed): 13 samples from 1 repository, 9 ran. The run record, sample by sample. “Ran” means executed on a synthesized input, not that the code is correct or reproduces the paper.

Repository list and official/mentioned flags are the archive's, frozen 2025-07-28. Reachability, where shown, is from one Syntology probe window (2026-09-16 to 2026-09-18); repositories not probed show nothing. GitHub stars are not tracked.

Harvested from jihyeonseong/SoM-TP. “Ran” means the sample executed on a synthesized input. It does not mean the output is correct, and nothing here reproduces the paper's results. “Honoured” and “violated” refer to a contract Syntology drafted from the code itself; “our draft was wrong” and “fixture could not drive it” are failures of Syntology's instrument, not of the code.

Each sample ends with its code_sha256, Syntology's identity for that exact code. An agent fetches the stored sample with Syntology's MCP tool get_code(code_sha256="…") (how to connect); click an identity to copy that call.

Repository labels, per sample. official repository: The archive marks this repository official for the paper. named in the paper: The archive records that the paper mentions this repository; it is not marked official. community (archive-listed): In the archive's code links for this paper, not marked official and not recorded as mentioned in the paper. found in paper text by Syntology: Syntology found this repository in the paper's own text; whether it is the authors' implementation is not asserted. community: Not in the archive's code links for this paper; a community repository Syntology harvested. Samples from a repository marked official are listed first. Licence labels name the repository's licence as recorded at harvest. “Pointer only” means Syntology does not serve that copy's text, for one of four reasons: no licence file was found; the licence was not identified; the licence is recorded as permissive but that copy's record is not marked cleared; or the licence is outside the permissive list Syntology serves text under (MIT, Apache-2.0, BSD and similar). Some licences outside that list permit redistribution, such as WTFPL, and GPL-3.0 under its conditions; they are simply not on the list. Hover a licence label for the reason. File links open the file on GitHub at the default branch, which may have changed since the harvest.
