The Volterra signature

ArXi:2603.04525v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Modern approaches for learning from non-Markovian time series, such as recurrent neural networks, neural controlled differential equations or transformers, typically rely on implicit memory mechanisms that can be difficult to interpret or to train over long horizons. We propose the \emph{Volterra signature} $\mathrm{VSig}(x;K)$ as a principled, explicit feature representation for history-dependent systems.
