About this paper

Yueqiao Chen, Dongyu Liu

CATF forecasts one target series from its history and context, routing each input to one specialist Worker. A Transformer-based Manager selects the Worker; all Workers are evaluated during training, but only the selected Worker runs at inference. Across five datasets and four horizons, CATF lowers MSE in 162 of 200 comparisons, with advantages most evident when context marks distinct regimes.
