The paper proposes a novel method called Multi Scale Dilated Convolution Network (MSDCN) for accurate long-term time series forecasting. By utilizing a shallow dilated convolution architecture, MSDCN captures the period and trend characteristics of long time series data, outperforming previous state-of-the-art approaches. The approach combines traditional autoregressive models with exponentially growing dilations and varying kernel sizes to sample time series data at different scales.

The paper helps us better predict what will happen in the future by analyzing big patterns in data over a long period of time. This is important for making decisions and planning ahead. The authors developed a new way to analyze this kind of data using something called dilated convolutions, which allows them to find patterns at different scales. They tested their approach on eight real-world datasets and found that it worked better than other methods.
