Patent number: 11593822Abstract: State of the art systems that are used for time series data prediction have the disadvantage that perform only one step prediction, which has only limited application. Disadvantage of such systems is that extent of applications of such single step predictions are limited. The disclosure herein generally relates to time series data prediction, and, more particularly, to time series data prediction based on seasonal lags. The system processes collected input data and determines order of seasonality of the input data. The system further selects encoders based on the determined order of seasonality and generates input data for a decoder that forms encoder-decoder pair with each of the encoders. The system then generates time series data predictions based on seasonal lag information distributed without redundance between encoder and decoder inputs.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2021Date of Patent: February 28, 2023Assignee: Tata Consultancy Services LimitedInventors: Avinash Achar, Soumen Pachal, Antony Joshini Lobo
