A novel neural network-based approach, Neural Jump ODEs, models conditional expectations between observations by combining neural ordinary differential equations (ODEs) with jump processes. This framework has been shown to be effective for fully data-driven online forecasting in settings with irregular and partial observations, operating under weak regularity assumptions. The work extends the framework to input-output systems, enabling direct applications in online filtering and classification. Theoretical convergence guarantees are established, providing a robust solution to L2-optimal filtering. Empirical experiments demonstrate superior performance over classical parametric methods, particularly in scenarios with complex underlying distributions.

A new way of predicting things is being developed using neural networks and special mathematical equations called ordinary differential equations (ODEs). This approach is good at making predictions when there’s not a lot of data or the data is incomplete. It can even work with different types of data, like pictures or sounds, which makes it useful for many applications. The researchers made sure that their method works well and is reliable by showing mathematically why it’s correct.
