  • 可处理超粗糙时序,百万点数据仅需单卡,内存降低显著。
  • 适合金融建模、信号处理等长周期高波动场景。

签名核是分析高维序列数据的前沿工具,兼具理论保障与强性能。本文提出一种基于自适应截断递归局部幂级数展开的新方法,高效计算长时序高维时间序列的签名核。该方法基于签名核作为戈尔萨特偏微分方程(Goursat PDE)解的性质,采用分块的诺伊曼级数展开,在子域上构建快速收敛的局部近似解,并沿有向图拓扑顺序递推传播边界条件。算法通过求解一组相互依赖的戈尔萨特方程,实现低开销高精度计算。相较于现有方法,本方法在保持高精度的同时,大幅降低内存消耗,可高效处理单张GPU上的百万量级数据。实验表明,其适用于高波动、长周期的机器学习与金融建模任务。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

The signature kernel is a recent state-of-the-art tool for analyzing high-dimensional sequential data, valued for its theoretical guarantees and strong empirical performance. In this paper, we present a novel method for efficiently computing the signature kernel of long, high-dimensional time series via adaptively truncated recursive local power series expansions. Building on the characterization of the signature kernel as the solution of a Goursat PDE, our approach employs tilewise Neumann-series expansions to derive rapidly converging power series approximations of the signature kernel that are locally defined on subdomains and propagated iteratively across the entire domain of the Goursat solution by exploiting the geometry of the time series. Algorithmically, this involves solving a system of interdependent Goursat PDEs via adaptively truncated local power series expansions and recursive propagation of boundary conditions along a directed graph in a topological ordering. This method strikes an effective balance between computational cost and accuracy, achieving substantial performance improvements over state-of-the-art approaches for computing the signature kernel. It offers (a) adjustable and superior accuracy, even for time series with very high roughness; (b) drastically reduced memory requirements; and (c) scalability to efficiently handle very long time series (one million data points or more) on a single GPU. As demonstrated in our benchmarks, these advantages make our method particularly well-suited for rough-path-assisted machine learning, financial modeling, and signal processing applications involving very long and highly volatile sequential data.
