Title:
Frontiers of Foundation Models for Time Series in Science Applications

Abstract:
Recent development in deep learning has spurred research advances in time series modeling and analysis. Practical applications of time series raise a series of new challenges in science applications, such as multi-resolution, multimodal, missing value, distributeness, and interpretability. In this talk, I will discuss possible paths to foundation models for time series data and future directions for time series research.
