Generative Modeling of Approximately Periodic Time Series by a Posterior-Weighted Gaussian Process
Discrete automated processes in industrial and cyber-physical systems often exhibit a repetitive structure in which successive repetitions follow a common trajectory while differing in duration, amplitude, and fine-scale dynamics. Such \emph{approximately periodic} behavior poses a challenge for Gaussian Processes (GP) modeling: strictly periodic models suppress inter-repetition variability, while non-periodic models fail to capture the strong structural regularities required for generation. In this work, we propose a stochastic generative model for approximately periodic time series. The model is based on a GP whose posterior is modulated by a novel kernel. Our approach decouples intra-r...
