abstract
Most methods for time series classification that attain state-of-the-art accuracy have high computational complexity, requiring significant training time even for smaller datasets, and are intractable for larger datasets. Additionally, many existing methods focus on a single type of feature such as shape or frequency. Building on the recent success of convolutional neural networks for time series classification, we show that simple linear classifiers using random convolutional kernels achieve state-of-the-art accuracy with a fraction of the computational expense of existing methods.

A 4.5M-parameter transformer meta-trained on synthetic VARX-generated classification tasks achieves state-of-the-art ROC AUC on the UCR time series classification benchmark via in-context learning with no per-dataset training.
Self-pretraining improves Transformer sequence classification by enabling learning of proximity-biased attention from positional encodings that label supervision alone cannot easily acquire from random starts.
