Time-series representation learning is a fundamental task for time-series analysis. While significant progress has been made to achieve accurate representations for downstream applications, the learned representations often lack interpretability and do not expose semantic meanings. Different from previous efforts on the entangled feature space, we aim to extract the semantic-rich temporal correlations in the latent interpretable factorized representation of the data. Motivated by the success of disentangled representation learning in computer vision, we study the possibility of learning semantic-rich time-series representations, which remains unexplored due to three main challenges: 1) sequential data structure introduces complex temporal correlations and makes the latent representations hard to interpret, 2) sequential models suffer from KL vanishing problem, and 3) interpretable semantic concepts for time-series often rely on multiple factors instead of individuals. To bridge the gap, we propose Disentangle Time Series (DTS), a novel disentanglement enhancement framework for sequential data. Specifically, to generate hierarchical semantic concepts as the interpretable and disentangled representation of time-series, DTS introduces multi-level disentanglement strategies by covering both individual latent factors and group semantic segments. We further theoretically show how to alleviate the KL vanishing problem: DTS introduces a mutual information maximization term, while preserving a heavier penalty on the total correlation and the dimension-wise KL to keep the disentanglement property. Experimental results on various real-world benchmark datasets demonstrate that the representations learned by DTS achieve superior performance in downstream applications, with high interpretability of semantic concepts.

We present a new model DrNET that learns disentangled image representations from video. Our approach leverages the temporal coherence of video and a novel adversarial loss to learn a representation that factorizes each frame into a stationary part an
d a temporally varying component. The disentangled representation can be used for a range of tasks. For example, applying a standard LSTM to the time-vary components enables prediction of future frames. We evaluate our approach on a range of synthetic and real videos, demonstrating the ability to coherently generate hundreds of steps into the future.
The goal of the unsupervised learning of disentangled representations is to separate the independent explanatory factors of variation in the data without access to supervision. In this paper, we summarize the results of Locatello et al., 2019, and fo
cus on their implications for practitioners. We discuss the theoretical result showing that the unsupervised learning of disentangled representations is fundamentally impossible without inductive biases and the practical challenges it entails. Finally, we comment on our experimental findings, highlighting the limitations of state-of-the-art approaches and directions for future research.
Although the self-supervised pre-training of transformer models has resulted in the revolutionizing of natural language processing (NLP) applications and the achievement of state-of-the-art results with regard to various benchmarks, this process is s
till vulnerable to small and imperceptible permutations originating from legitimate inputs. Intuitively, the representations should be similar in the feature space with subtle input permutations, while large variations occur with different meanings. This motivates us to investigate the learning of robust textual representation in a contrastive manner. However, it is non-trivial to obtain opposing semantic instances for textual samples. In this study, we propose a disentangled contrastive learning method that separately optimizes the uniformity and alignment of representations without negative sampling. Specifically, we introduce the concept of momentum representation consistency to align features and leverage power normalization while conforming the uniformity. Our experimental results for the NLP benchmarks demonstrate that our approach can obtain better results compared with the baselines, as well as achieve promising improvements with invariance tests and adversarial attacks. The code is available in https://github.com/zxlzr/DCL.
Learning interpretable and disentangled representations is a crucial yet challenging task in representation learning. In this work, we focus on semi-supervised disentanglement learning and extend work by Locatello et al. (2019) by introducing another
source of supervision that we denote as label replacement. Specifically, during training, we replace the inferred representation associated with a data point with its ground-truth representation whenever it is available. Our extension is theoretically inspired by our proposed general framework of semi-supervised disentanglement learning in the context of VAEs which naturally motivates the supervised terms commonly used in existing semi-supervised VAEs (but not for disentanglement learning). Extensive experiments on synthetic and real datasets demonstrate both quantitatively and qualitatively the ability of our extension to significantly and consistently improve disentanglement with very limited supervision.
Recent advances in time series classification have largely focused on methods that either employ deep learning or utilize other machine learning models for feature extraction. Though successful, their power often comes at the requirement of computati
onal complexity. In this paper, we introduce GeoStat representations for time series. GeoStat representations are based off of a generalization of recent methods for trajectory classification, and summarize the information of a time series in terms of comprehensive statistics of (possibly windowed) distributions of easy to compute differential geometric quantities, requiring no dynamic time warping. The features used are intuitive and require minimal parameter tuning. We perform an exhaustive evaluation of GeoStat on a number of real datasets, showing that simple KNN and SVM classifiers trained on these representations exhibit surprising performance relative to modern single model methods requiring significant computational power, achieving state of the art results in many cases. In particular, we show that this methodology achieves good performance on a challenging dataset involving the classification of fishing vessels, where our methods achieve good performance relative to the state of the art despite only having access to approximately two percent of the dataset used in training and evaluating this state of the art.
