Time Series with PyTorch
By :
We have explored two types of embedding in this chapter: formulating time series data based on the idea of dynamical systems using our intuitions, and learning a time series embedding using a deep learning model. There exist many different ways of embedding time series data. Many times we don’t talk about them that much as we have models that function end to end. However, it is crucial to understand the importance of time series embeddings. We didn’t include all the details of the implementations; however, you can find the experiments we have carried out in the official repository of this book. PCA, t-SNE and UMAP are popular dimensionality reduction techniques that can be used to embed time series data for visualization or clustering. We have not discussed them in this chapter, but they are very useful in practice. As we move on to the rest of the chapters, we will see more about the role of embeddings in a variety of time series tasks.
