| Abstract: | Precise prediction of Multivariate Time Series (MTS) has been playing a pivotal role in numerous kinds of applications. Existing works have made significant efforts to capture temporal tendency and periodical patterns, but they always ignore abrupt variations and heterogeneous/spatial associations of sensory data. In this paper, we develop a dual normalization (dual-norm) based dynamic graph diffusion network (DNGDN) to capture hidden intricate correlations of MTS data for temporal prediction. Specifically, we design time series decomposition and dual-norm mechanism to learn the latent dependencies and alleviate the adverse effect of abnormal MTS data. Furthermore, a dynamic graph diffusion network is adopted for adaptively exploring the spatial correlations among variables. Extensive experiments are performed on 3 real world experimental datasets with 8 representative baselines for temporal prediction. The performances of DNGDN outperforms all baselines with at least 4% lower MAPE over all datasets. |
