The rapid growth in wireless infrastructure has increased the need to accurately estimate and forecast electromagnetic field (EMF) levels to ensure ongoing compliance, assess potential health impacts, and support efficient network planning. While existing studies rely on univariate forecasting of wideband aggregate EMF data, multivariate narrow-band EMF forecasting is needed to capture the inter-operator and inter-frequency variations essential for proactive network planning. To this end, this paper introduces EMFusion, a conditional diffusion-based EMF forecasting framework that integrates diverse contextual factors, such as time of day, season, and holidays, while providing uncertainty-aware probabilistic forecasts. The proposed architecture features a residual U-Net backbone enhanced by a cross-attention mechanism that dynamically integrates external conditions to guide the generation process. Furthermore, EMFusion integrates an imputation-based sampling strategy that treats forecasting as a structural inpainting task, ensuring temporal coherence even with irregular measurements. Unlike standard point forecasters, EMFusion generates empirical probabilistic prediction intervals from the learned conditional distribution, providing uncertainty-aware probabilistic forecasting rather than simple point estimation. Numerical experiments conducted on the multivariate narrow-band EMF datasets demonstrate that EMFusion with the contextual information of working hours outperforms the baseline models with or without conditions. The proposed EMFusion outperforms the best baseline by 23.85% in continuous ranked probability score (CRPS) and 13.93% in normalized root mean square error.
Predicting electromagnetic field (EMF) strength in urban environments is essential for cellular network planning but computationally expensive with physics-based simulators. We propose a multi-conditioned dense prediction framework that generates 500 500 EMF maps from building layout images and antenna configurations. Our architecture uses a High-Resolution Transformer (HRFormer) backbone with two complementary conditioning mechanisms: Feature-wise Linear Modulation (FiLM) injects scalar antenna parameters into all backbone stages, while cross-attention fuses 1-D radiation pattern tokens with spatial features at the deepest stage. We further introduce transmitter-relative spatial channels encoding distance, proximity, and bearing from the antenna, enabling coordinate-consistent test-time augmentation (TTA) that reduces test MAE by 6.3%. To address the prediction difficulty imbalance across EMF maps, we design a composite loss combining masked L1, multi-scale structural similarity (MS-SSIM), and a focal L1 term that upweights high-signal pixels, outperforming individual loss components in all metrics. Our best model achieves a test MAE of 0.0461, a 25.2% improvement over a plain UNet baseline and 31.8% over an HRFormer-only baseline.Do-
In this paper, we propose a novel conditional diffusion-based framework for multivariable time-series solar power forecasting. The proposed method reformulates temporal PV data as structured two-dimensional representations (images) using a sliding-window patch construction, enabling the application of Denoising Diffusion Probabilistic Models (DDPM) within a unified spatiotemporal learning paradigm. A key contribution of this work is the formulation of solar forecasting as an inpainting problem, where future time steps are treated as missing regions to be reconstructed. This is achieved through a mask-based conditional diffusion mechanism, in which historical observations are preserved as conditioning context while the target (future) region is progressively corrupted and subsequently recovered via reverse diffusion. The model learns to generate coherent future sequences conditioned on observed data, effectively performing time-series inpainting. To fully utilize all available features and ensure compatibility with U-Net architectural constraints, a zero-padding strategy is introduced to construct fixed-size inputs. The model is trained using a supervised denoising objective to predict injected noise, enabling accurate iterative reconstruction during the reverse process. Extensive experiments conducted on benchmark PV dataset, including GEFCom2014, demonstrate that the proposed approach achieves high forecasting accuracy, particularly for short-term horizons. The results highlight the effectiveness of integrating diffusion-based generative modeling with an inpainting formulation for robust, flexible, and high-fidelity solar power forecasting.
We propose ABF-T-GLCP, a model-agnostic framework for forecasting and uncertainty quantification in nonstationary multivariate time series. The central idea is to learn an adaptive predictive state representation for point forecasting and reuse it for conformal calibration. The forecasting module combines horizon-specific temporal experts through a learned gate and refines predictions using sparse predictive transfer across related series. The uncertainty module, Gate-Localized Conformal Prediction (GLCP), uses the learned gate state, together with temporal recency, to select locally relevant calibration residuals, thereby coupling uncertainty calibration to the predictive regimes used by the forecasting model. This shared representation allows point forecasts and prediction intervals to adapt consistently under evolving temporal dynamics while retaining the model-agnostic nature of conformal prediction and yielding approximate local coverage under mild stability conditions. Experiments on a large-scale high-frequency commodity forecasting benchmark show consistent gains in point forecasting accuracy and substantially narrower prediction intervals with empirical coverage close to the nominal level. Additional results indicate that the framework extends beyond the motivating financial application.
