Can this model predict the multi-targets? If it can, could u tell me how to fix the code? #103

Hi, thanks for your interest.

Can you provide more details about "multi-targets"?

(1) If you mean multivariate forecasting, we have already supported this.

(2) If you refer to multi-task learning (including anomaly detection, forecasting, and classification), I think you can try multiple final MLP projectors. Further, if you are interested in multi-task learning in time series, you may find our latest paper helpful: https://arxiv.org/abs/2210.02186

Hi, thanks for your answer. I want to predict the ship's position. So, it needs two targets: X and Y. But in the other datasets, which you used, there is only one target 'OT'. Can you tell me how I fix the code for my problem?

Hi, you can just use multivariate forecasting setting (--features M). In multivariate forecasting, all the columns are the targets.
