Can it work on anomaly detection?

Hi, I am a new one in time series data analysis. Can this model be used for anomaly detection? If so, what codes do I need to modify to anomaly detection? Thank you very much!

Hi, SparseTSF is designed for long-term time series forecasting tasks. It downsamples both the input and output sequences.

If you want to use it for anomaly detection (for example, detecting anomalies based on reconstruction errors of the input sequence), you would need to change the output target sequence to the input itself, and also customize the anomaly score threshold.

For a simpler implementation, you can try embedding it directly into TSLib, which provides the full anomaly detection pipeline.
