Series2Vec: Similarity-based Self-supervised Representation Learning for Time Series Classification
CoRR(2023)
摘要
We argue that time series analysis is fundamentally different in nature to
either vision or natural language processing with respect to the forms of
meaningful self-supervised learning tasks that can be defined. Motivated by
this insight, we introduce a novel approach called \textit{Series2Vec} for
self-supervised representation learning. Unlike other self-supervised methods
in time series, which carry the risk of positive sample variants being less
similar to the anchor sample than series in the negative set, Series2Vec is
trained to predict the similarity between two series in both temporal and
spectral domains through a self-supervised task. Series2Vec relies primarily on
the consistency of the unsupervised similarity step, rather than the intrinsic
quality of the similarity measurement, without the need for hand-crafted data
augmentation. To further enforce the network to learn similar representations
for similar time series, we propose a novel approach that applies
order-invariant attention to each representation within the batch during
training. Our evaluation of Series2Vec on nine large real-world datasets, along
with the UCR/UEA archive, shows enhanced performance compared to current
state-of-the-art self-supervised techniques for time series. Additionally, our
extensive experiments show that Series2Vec performs comparably with fully
supervised training and offers high efficiency in datasets with limited-labeled
data. Finally, we show that the fusion of Series2Vec with other representation
learning models leads to enhanced performance for time series classification.
