Підсумок	Crossformer is a Transformer-based architecture for multivariate time series forecasting, introduced by Yunhao Zhang and Junchi Yan at ICLR 2023. Unlike earlier Transformer variants that treat each variate independently, Crossformer explicitly models cross-dimension dependencies alongside temporal patterns. It achieves this through a two-stage attention design — cross-time and cross-dimension — applied over segment-level embeddings organized in a hierarchical encoder, enabling the model to capture both intra-variate dynamics and inter-variate correlations simultaneously.	iTransformer is a deep-learning architecture for multivariate time-series forecasting introduced by Liu et al. at ICLR 2024. Its defining idea is to invert the conventional Transformer tokenisation strategy: instead of treating each time step as a token, iTransformer treats each variate (sensor channel or feature series) as a single token whose embedding encodes the full observed look-back window. Self-attention is then applied across variates to capture inter-series dependencies, while a feed-forward network within each token learns temporal patterns.	PatchTST is a patch-based Transformer architecture for time series forecasting, introduced by Nie and colleagues in 2023, that cuts each series into overlapping patches treated as tokens and processes channels independently. It balances computational efficiency with strong accuracy on long-horizon forecasting.
