UnHiPPO: Uncertainty-aware Initialization for State Space Models
https://openreview.net/forum?id=U8GUmxnzXn
[ "Marten Lienen", "Abdullah Saydemir", "Stephan Günnemann" ]
Poster
deep_learning->sequential_models_time_series
State space models are emerging as a dominant model class for sequence problems with many relying on the HiPPO framework to initialize their dynamics. However, HiPPO fundamentally assumes data to be noise-free; an assumption often violated in practice. We extend the HiPPO theory with measurement noise and derive an unc...

Time series with missing or irregularly sampled data are a persistent challenge in machine learning. Many methods operate on the frequency-domain, relying on the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) which assumes uniform sampling, therefore requiring prior interpolation that can distort the spectra. To address this limitation,...
