摘要

Accurately forecasting exchange rate time series is crucial for effective risk management. The longer the forecast time window and the higher the frequency, the more valuable it is for managers to make timely decisions. In light of the task characteristics of exchange rate forecasting, this paper proposes an improved transformer-based model for addressing long sequence time series forecasting problems. Specifically, we introduce a position embedding method for events, which integrates the traditional coding context vector to perform joint location representation learning. Additionally, we explore a periodic enhancement method of features to jointly enhance the transformer-like model architecture’s ability to adaptively learn the long-term and hidden correlations of long sequence time series data. Extensive experimental results on the prediction of four exchange rate data for pairs of opening, high, low, and closing prices at a frequency of 5 min show that our model outperforms the prediction of the baseline method.
