Revisiting Transformers Architecture for Time Series
Transformers are well known for NLP-specific tasks. Their main power comes from their capabilities to model time series data. This data can be textual or non-textual. In this chapter, you will learn how to use transformers for time series data modeling and predicting. You will also learn the basics of time series concepts and utilize a very simple model on top of that. This will give you a glance at time series data that can be used for various predictions. Conversely, you will also learn how transformers differ and how you apply transformer models for this scope.
The following topics will be covered in this chapter:
- Understanding time series concepts
- Transformers and time series data modeling
