Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) represent the de facto standard machine learning tool for sequence modelling, owing to their expressive power and memory. However, when dealing with large dimensional data, the corresponding exponential increase in the number of parameters imposes a computational bottleneck. The necessity to equip RNNs with the ability to deal with the curse of dimensionality, such as through the parameter compression ability inherent to tensors, has led to the development of the Tensor-Train RNN (TT-RNN). Despite achieving promising results in many applications, the full potential of the TT-RNN is yet to be explored in the context of interpretable financial modelling, a notoriously challenging task characterized by multi-modal data with low signal-to-noise ratio. To address this issue, we investigate the potential of TT-RNN in the task of financial forecasting of currencies. We show, through the analysis of TT-factors, that the physical meaning underlying tensor decomposition, enables the TT-RNN model to aid the interpretability of results, thus mitigating the notorious black-box issue associated with neural networks. Furthermore, simulation results highlight the regularization power of TT decomposition, demonstrating the superior performance of TT-RNN over its uncompressed RNN counterpart and other tensor forecasting methods.

The Recurrent Neural Networks and their variants have shown promising performances in sequence modeling tasks such as Natural Language Processing. These models, however, turn out to be impractical and difficult to train when exposed to very high-dime nsional inputs due to the large input-to-hidden weight matrix. This may have prevented RNNs large-scale application in tasks that involve very high input dimensions such as video modeling; current approaches reduce the input dimensions using various feature extractors. To address this challenge, we propose a new, more general and efficient approach by factorizing the input-to-hidden weight matrix using Tensor-Train decomposition which is trained simultaneously with the weights themselves. We test our model on classification tasks using multiple real-world video datasets and achieve competitive performances with state-of-the-art models, even though our model architecture is orders of magnitude less complex. We believe that the proposed approach provides a novel and fundamental building block for modeling high-dimensional sequential data with RNN architectures and opens up many possibilities to transfer the expressive and advanced architectures from other domains such as NLP to modeling high-dimensional sequential data.
Time series models with recurrent neural networks (RNNs) can have high accuracy but are unfortunately difficult to interpret as a result of feature-interactions, temporal-interactions, and non-linear transformations. Interpretability is important in domains like healthcare where constructing models that provide insight into the relationships they have learned are required to validate and trust model predictions. We want accurate time series models where users can understand the contribution of individual input features. We present the Interpretable-RNN (I-RNN) that balances model complexity and accuracy by forcing the relationship between variables in the model to be additive. Interactions are restricted between hidden states of the RNN and additively combined at the final step. I-RNN specifically captures the unique characteristics of clinical time series, which are unevenly sampled in time, asynchronously acquired, and have missing data. Importantly, the hidden state activations represent feature coefficients that correlate with the prediction target and can be visualized as risk curves that capture the global relationship between individual input features and the outcome. We evaluate the I-RNN model on the Physionet 2012 Challenge dataset to predict in-hospital mortality, and on a real-world clinical decision support task: predicting hemodynamic interventions in the intensive care unit. I-RNN provides explanations in the form of global and local feature importances comparable to highly intelligible models like decision trees trained on hand-engineered features while significantly outperforming them. I-RNN remains intelligible while providing accuracy comparable to state-of-the-art decay-based and interpolation-based recurrent time series models. The experimental results on real-world clinical datasets refute the myth that there is a tradeoff between accuracy and interpretability.
According to the National Academies, a weekly forecast of velocity, vertical structure, and duration of the Loop Current (LC) and its eddies is critical for understanding the oceanography and ecosystem, and for mitigating outcomes of anthropogenic an d natural disasters in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM). However, this forecast is a challenging problem since the LC behaviour is dominated by long-range spatial connections across multiple timescales. In this paper, we extend spatiotemporal predictive learning, showing its effectiveness beyond video prediction, to a 4D model, i.e., a novel Physics-informed Tensor-train ConvLSTM (PITT-ConvLSTM) for temporal sequences of 3D geospatial data forecasting. Specifically, we propose 1) a novel 4D higher-order recurrent neural network with empirical orthogonal function analysis to capture the hidden uncorrelated patterns of each hierarchy, 2) a convolutional tensor-train decomposition to capture higher-order space-time correlations, and 3) to incorporate prior physic knowledge that is provided from domain experts by informing the learning in latent space. The advantage of our proposed method is clear: constrained by physical laws, it simultaneously learns good representations for frame dependencies (both short-term and long-term high-level dependency) and inter-hierarchical relations within each time frame. Experiments on geospatial data collected from the GoM demonstrate that PITT-ConvLSTM outperforms the state-of-the-art methods in forecasting the volumetric velocity of the LC and its eddies for a period of over one week.
We consider a setting where multiple entities inter-act with each other over time and the time-varying statuses of the entities are represented as multiple correlated time series. For example, speed sensors are deployed in different locations in a ro ad network, where the speed of a specific location across time is captured by the corresponding sensor as a time series, resulting in multiple speed time series from different locations, which are often correlated. To enable accurate forecasting on correlated time series, we proposes graph attention recurrent neural networks.First, we build a graph among different entities by taking into account spatial proximity and employ a multi-head attention mechanism to derive adaptive weight matrices for the graph to capture the correlations among vertices (e.g., speeds at different locations) at different timestamps. Second, we employ recurrent neural networks to take into account temporal dependency while taking into account the adaptive weight matrices learned from the first step to consider the correlations among time series.Experiments on a large real-world speed time series data set suggest that the proposed method is effective and outperforms the state-of-the-art in most settings. This manuscript provides a full version of a workshop paper [1].

Origin-destination (OD) matrices are often used in urban planning, where a city is partitioned into regions and an element (i, j) in an OD matrix records the cost (e.g., travel time, fuel consumption, or travel speed) from region i to region j. In th is paper, we partition a day into multiple intervals, e.g., 96 15-min intervals and each interval is associated with an OD matrix which represents the costs in the interval; and we consider sparse and stochastic OD matrices, where the elements represent stochastic but not deterministic costs and some elements are missing due to lack of data between two regions. We solve the sparse, stochastic OD matrix forecasting problem. Given a sequence of historical OD matrices that are sparse, we aim at predicting future OD matrices with no empty elements. We propose a generic learning framework to solve the problem by dealing with sparse matrices via matrix factorization and two graph convolutional neural networks and capturing temporal dynamics via recurrent neural network. Empirical studies using two taxi datasets from different countries verify the effectiveness of the proposed framework.
