	<span>Overview
	</span></h2>

<p>The Time Series Transformer model is a vanilla encoder-decoder Transformer for time series forecasting.</p>
<p>Tips:</p>
<ul><li>Similar to other models in the library, <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/model_doc/time_series_transformer#transformers.TimeSeriesTransformerModel">TimeSeriesTransformerModel</a> is the raw Transformer without any head on top, and <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/model_doc/time_series_transformer#transformers.TimeSeriesTransformerForPrediction">TimeSeriesTransformerForPrediction</a>
adds a distribution head on top of the former, which can be used for time-series forecasting. Note that this is a so-called probabilistic forecasting model, not a
point forecasting model. This means that the model learns a distribution, from which one can sample. The model doesn’t directly output values.</li>
<li><a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/model_doc/time_series_transformer#transformers.TimeSeriesTransformerForPrediction">TimeSeriesTransformerForPrediction</a> consists of 2 blocks: an encoder, which takes a <code>context_length</code> of time series values as input (called <code>past_values</code>),
and a decoder, which predicts a <code>prediction_length</code> of time series values into the future (called <code>future_values</code>). During training, one needs to provide
pairs of (<code>past_values</code> and <code>future_values</code>) to the model.</li>
<li>In addition to the raw (<code>past_values</code> and <code>future_values</code>), one typically provides additional features to the model. These can be the following:<ul><li><code>past_time_features</code>: temporal features which the model will add to <code>past_values</code>. These serve as “positional encodings” for the Transformer encoder.
Examples are “day of the month”, “month of the year”, etc. as scalar values (and then stacked together as a vector).
e.g. if a given time-series value was obtained on the 11th of August, then one could have [11, 8] as time feature vector (11 being “day of the month”, 8 being “month of the year”).</li>
<li><code>future_time_features</code>: temporal features which the model will add to <code>future_values</code>. These serve as “positional encodings” for the Transformer decoder.
Examples are “day of the month”, “month of the year”, etc. as scalar values (and then stacked together as a vector).
e.g. if a given time-series value was obtained on the 11th of August, then one could have [11, 8] as time feature vector (11 being “day of the month”, 8 being “month of the year”).</li>
<li><code>static_categorical_features</code>: categorical features which are static over time (i.e., have the same value for all <code>past_values</code> and <code>future_values</code>).
An example here is the store ID or region ID that identifies a given time-series.
Note that these features need to be known for ALL data points (also those in the future).</li>
<li><code>static_real_features</code>: real-valued features which are static over time (i.e., have the same value for all <code>past_values</code> and <code>future_values</code>).
An example here is the image representation of the product for which you have the time-series values (like the <a href="resnet">ResNet</a> embedding of a “shoe” picture,
if your time-series is about the sales of shoes).
Note that these features need to be known for ALL data points (also those in the future).</li></ul></li>
<li>The model is trained using “teacher-forcing”, similar to how a Transformer is trained for machine translation. This means that, during training, one shifts the
<code>future_values</code> one position to the right as input to the decoder, prepended by the last value of <code>past_values</code>. At each time step, the model needs to predict the
next target. So the set-up of training is similar to a GPT model for language, except that there’s no notion of <code>decoder_start_token_id</code> (we just use the last value
of the context as initial input for the decoder).</li>
<li>At inference time, we give the final value of the <code>past_values</code> as input to the decoder. Next, we can sample from the model to make a prediction at the next time step,
which is then fed to the decoder in order to make the next prediction (also called autoregressive generation).</li></ul>

<p>This is the configuration class to store the configuration of a <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/model_doc/time_series_transformer#transformers.TimeSeriesTransformerModel">TimeSeriesTransformerModel</a>. It is used to
instantiate a Time Series Transformer model according to the specified arguments, defining the model architecture.
Instantiating a configuration with the defaults will yield a similar configuration to that of the Time Series
Transformer

<p>The bare Time Series Transformer Model outputting raw hidden-states without any specific head on top.
This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

<p>The Time Series Transformer Model with a distribution head on top for time-series forecasting.
This model inherits from <a href="/docs/transformers/pr_19043/en/main_classes/model#transformers.PreTrainedModel">PreTrainedModel</a>. Check the superclass documentation for the generic methods the
library implements for all its model (such as downloading or saving, resizing the input embeddings, pruning heads
etc.)</p>
<p>This model is also a PyTorch <a href="https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/nn.html#torch.nn.Module" rel="nofollow">torch.nn.Module</a> subclass.
Use it as a regular PyTorch Module and refer to the PyTorch documentation for all matter related to general usage
and behavior.</p>

							<span><!-- HTML_TAG_START --><strong>past_time_features</strong> (<code>torch.FloatTensor</code> of shape <code>(batch_size, sequence_length, num_features)</code>, <em>optional</em>) &#x2014;
Optional time features, which the model internally will add to <code>past_values</code>. These could be things like
&#x201C;month of year&#x201D;, &#x201C;day of the month&#x201D;, etc. encoded as vectors (for instance as Fourier features). These
could also be so-called &#x201C;age&#x201D; features, which basically help the model know &#x201C;at which point in life&#x201D; a
time-series is. Age features have small values for distant past time steps and increase monotonically the
more we approach the current time step.</p>
<p>These features serve as the &#x201C;positional encodings&#x201D; of the inputs. So contrary to a model like BERT, where
the position encodings are learned from scratch internally as parameters of the model, the Time Series
Transformer requires to provide additional time features.</p>
<p>The Time Series Transformer only learns additional embeddings for <code>static_categorical_features</code>.<!-- HTML_TAG_END -->

							<span><!-- HTML_TAG_START --><strong>future_time_features</strong> (<code>torch.FloatTensor</code> of shape <code>(batch_size, prediction_length, num_features)</code>, <em>optional</em>) &#x2014;
Optional time features, which the model internally will add to <code>future_values</code>. These could be things like
&#x201C;month of year&#x201D;, &#x201C;day of the month&#x201D;, etc. encoded as vectors (for instance as Fourier features). These
could also be so-called &#x201C;age&#x201D; features, which basically help the model know &#x201C;at which point in life&#x201D; a
time-series is. Age features have small values for distant past time steps and increase monotonically the
more we approach the current time step.</p>
<p>These features serve as the &#x201C;positional encodings&#x201D; of the inputs. So contrary to a model like BERT, where
the position encodings are learned from scratch internally as parameters of the model, the Time Series
Transformer requires to provide additional features.</p>
<p>The Time Series Transformer only learns additional embeddings for <code>static_categorical_features</code>.<!-- HTML_TAG_END -->
