Abstract

En 中文
This paper proposes a framework that improves classification performance for multivariate time series data while providing an objective assessment of each variable’s influence, including interaction effects. While convolutional neural networks (CNNs) offer significant advantages in analyzing multivariate time series data, the structural limitations of CNNs have restricted their ability to detect statistical interactions. Our approach creatively modifies convolutional filters and layer structures, enabling feature extraction that captures the influence of pairwise interactions. These extracted features are processed by interpretable models to calculate feature importance, enabling in-depth causal analysis by quantifying both individual and pairwise variable effects. In addition, the proposed method enhances the overall classification performance of multivariate time series data. Synthetic data experiments verified that the proposed method effectively extracted relevant features that explain pairwise interactions. In addition, in the multivariate time series classification experiments using real data, the proposed method demonstrated superior performance compared to baseline methods. These results suggest that the proposed approach is a practical and interpretable solution for multivariate time series classification tasks in domains where variable interactions play a decisive role, such as healthcare, finance, and manufacturing.
