About this paper

Zheng Dong, Zekai Fan, Shixiang Zhu

This research introduces a Conditional Event Generator (CEG) framework, instantiated with a Conditional Denoising Diffusion Model (CDDM), for modeling high-dimensional marked temporal point processes. The approach bypasses computationally intractable intensity function integrals and inefficient thinning algorithms, enabling significantly faster and more accurate generation of sequential events with complex, high-dimensional associated data.

Key insights

  • Directly modeling and generating events conditioned on historical context using modern generative models can overcome the computational and representational challenges of intensity-based point processes for high-dimensional marks.
  • A model-agnostic generative framework allows flexible integration of various deep learning generative models, enabling adaptation to complex data and leveraging advancements in generative AI.
  • Bypassing explicit intensity function estimation and the thinning algorithm leads to substantial improvements in computational efficiency for both training and event generation, making high-dimensional marked point process modeling practical.
