Panel time series data, which involves observations from multiple entities over time, is widely used in fields like economics, business analytics, politics, and healthcare for tasks such as policy analysis, disease tracking, forecasting, and anomaly detection. Initially, statistical models were employed, followed by machine learning and deep learning approaches. Despite the advancement of deep learning models, their performance is inconsistent across different dataset characteristics, such as non-stationarity and heterogeneity. This project aims to identify the strengths and weaknesses of existing models and develop a new, more robust model that consistently outperforms current approaches.
