Time Series with PyTorch
By :
In this chapter, we have discussed the paradigms of deep learning, and explained the different methods of self-supervised learning for time series. We discussed in detail the idea Contrastive Predictive Coding (CPC) method for self-supervised learning on time series data, and implemented our own version of it. We also demoed the role of CPC representations for downstream time series classification tasks.
Throughout this book, we have journeyed from the fundamental building blocks of PyTorch and all sorts of models, covering different architectures, and techniques. We discussed classical models, deep learning models such as transformers, and generative approaches such as diffusion models, and this final chapter on self-supervised learning. But what is the principle of a good model? It is cliche but a good model is one that can approach the data generating process and capture the underlying structure of the data. For time series data, it is especially so as time series data...
