Missing Value Imputation on Multidimensional Time Series

Summary: DeepMVI is a deep-learning imputation method for multidimensional time series, modeling missing values from temporal signals and cross-series correlations. Robust training with synthetic missing blocks and a temporal-transformer plus learned-embedding kernel regression yields large accuracy gains (often >50%), with slower runtimes but improved downstream analytics.
