Breakthrough Sensor-Limited Single View: Towards Implicit Temporal Dynamics for Time Series Domain Adaptation

Neural Information Processing Systems 

Unsupervised domain adaptation has emerged as a pivotal paradigm for mitigating distribution shifts in time series analysis. The fundamental challenge in time series domain adaptation arises from the entanglement of domain shifts and intricate temporal patterns. Crucially, the latent continuous-time dynamics, which are often inaccessible due to sensor constraints, are only partially observable through discrete time series from an explicit sensor-limited single view. This partial observability hinders the modeling of intricate temporal patterns, impeding domain invariant representation learning.
