  • Patent number: 12353990
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer program product, and a computer system for using a time-window based attention long short-term memory (TW-LSTM) network to analyze sequential data with time irregularity. A computer splits elapsed time into a predetermined number of time windows. The computer calculates average values of previous cell states in respective ones of the time windows and sets the average values as aggregated cell states for the respective ones of the time windows. The computer generates attention weights for the respective ones of the time windows. The computer calculates a new previous cell state, based on the aggregated cell states and the attention weights for the respective ones of the time windows. The computer updates a current cell state, based on the new previous cell state.
