Hi @YibinXie,
We differentiate between types of exogenous variables:
We are considering including a static encoder module to learn the categorical embeddings that you mention: https://github.com/Nixtla/neuralforecast/issues/343. Some architectures have by default the Static encoders like TFT.
Hi dear contributer team,
I'm really excited to find this repo, which helps me learn DL-based time series methods a lot.
But I've got a few questions when I'm playing with Nbeatsx model.
Can you elaborate on these three kinds of input features? A few examples would be really appreciated. Here is what I think: stat_exog_list: static features don't change with time, like category of an item hist_exog_list: only known from history not future, like sales of an item futr_exog_list: can be known from both history and future, like price of an item
The Nbeatsx model only support modelling digital exogenous variables. For categorial features, we often use embeddings to represent them. Why we don't use some embedding layers to involve categorial features?
Please correct me if I were wrong. Looing forward to your reply.
Regards and thanks, Yibin
