We extend Neural Processes (NPs) to sequential data through Recurrent NPs or RNPs, a family of conditional state space models. RNPs can learn dynamical patterns from sequential data and deal with non-stationarity. Given time series observed on fast real-world time scales but containing slow long-term variabilities, RNPs may derive appropriate slow latent time scales. They do so in an efficient manner by establishing conditional independence among subsequences of the time series. Our theoretically grounded framework for stochastic processes expands the applicability of NPs while retaining their benefits of flexibility, uncertainty estimation and favourable runtime with respect to Gaussian Processes. We demonstrate that state spaces learned by RNPs benefit predictive performance on real-world time-series data and nonlinear system identification, even in the case of limited data availability. |
