Multivariate Time Series Data Imputation via Distributionally Robust Regularization

Multivariate time series imputation is often compromised by mismatch between the observed and true data distributions, a bias induced by the combined effects of time-series non-stationarity and systematic missingness. Standard methods that encourage point-wise reconstruction or direct distributional alignment may overfit these biased observations. We propose the Distributionally Robust Regularized Imputer Objective (DRIO), which jointly minimizes reconstruction error and the worst-case divergence between the imputer distribution and data distributions within a Wasserstein ambiguity set. We derive a tractable upper-bound surrogate that reduces infinite-dimensional optimization over measures to adversarial search over sample trajectories, and develop an alternating learning algorithm compatible with modern deep learning backbones. Comprehensive experiments on diverse real-world datasets show that DRIO consistently provides robust imputation and suggests improved downstream forecasting under various missingness scenarios.
