The proposed brain-inspired memory module is a novel approach to forecasting multivariate time series (MTS) by incorporating human-like memory mechanisms. The module consists of semantic and episodic memory, which capture general and special patterns respectively. This architecture enables the model to learn periodic and sudden events that recur across different channels. Furthermore, the authors present a brain-inspired memory-augmented diffusion model that leverages memories as distinct priors for MTS predictions. Experimental results on eight datasets demonstrate the superiority of this approach in capturing and leveraging diverse recurrent temporal patterns.

This paper is about predicting things that happen multiple times at different channels. For example, stock prices or weather forecasts. The problem is that these events can be periodic, like a monthly trend, or sudden, like an unexpected storm. To solve this, the researchers created a new way to remember and use patterns from the past to predict what will happen in the future. They tested it on many different datasets and found that it works better than other methods.
