FreSH: Frequency-Segmented Hierarchical Multi-Expert Framework for Multivariate Time Series Classification

Pingping Liu, Muyao Wang, Zijian Zhang et al.

Multivariate Time Series Classification (MTSC) demands models that can effectively capture complex temporal patterns across multiple scales while remaining computationally efficient. However, existing approaches generally struggle to reconcile fine-grained representation learning, especially under class imbalance and real-world constraints. In this paper, we present FreSH, a Frequency-Segmented Hierarchical Multi-Expert Framework designed to address these challenges. FreSH introduces a new perspective for MTSC by enabling adaptive, multi-scale analysis of temporal signals, allowing different aspects of the data to be modeled in a complementary and coordinated manner. By combining localized specialization with holistic context modeling, FreSH achieves strong representational capacity without incurring excessive computational overhead. An adaptive fusion strategy further enhances flexibility, enabling the model to dynamically emphasize the most informative components of the input. In addition, we incorporate a more robust optimization objective that improves learning stability across varying sample difficulties and class distributions. Extensive evaluations on 30 UEA benchmark datasets and real-world vibration data demonstrate that FreSH consistently outperforms state-of-the-art methods in classification accuracy, while substantially reducing model size and efficiency.

MotionCraft: Latent World Modeling with Sparse Attention for Visual Upscaling

Rong Fu, Chunlei Meng, Yangchen Zeng et al.

Video super-resolution (VSR) aims to recover high-fidelity high-resolution videos from low-resolution inputs and is central to applications ranging from mobile capture to streaming and archival restoration. Existing approaches trade off among local-detail fidelity, long-range spatio-temporal modeling, perceptual realism, and efficiency: convolutional alignment techniques preserve local structure but suffer when motion is large or degradations are complex; transformer-based methods capture long-range dependencies yet require architectural or algorithmic adaptations to remain computationally feasible; and recent latent or diffusion-based generators synthesize rich texture but require specialized temporal constraints to maintain coherence. We present MotionCraft, a controllable VSR framework that formulates restoration as motion-aware latent state prediction inspired by world models and integrates adaptive sparse attention with an explicit user-accessible control interface. MotionCraft combines robust motion fusion, a Latent World Transformer that balances locality and targeted non-local interactions, and a compact conditional decoder to deliver temporally consistent, high-quality reconstructions under streaming constraints. Empirical evaluations show that MotionCraft achieves strong reconstruction and perceptual performance while enabling predictable trade-offs between temporal smoothness and reconstruction fidelity.
