In-Context Inpainting for Time Series Forecasting

The paper introduces ICI-Time, a framework that casts time series forecasting as a visual inpainting problem. By converting series into area‑chart images, it enables pre‑trained vision transformers to perform forecasting through in‑context learning without fine‑tuning or new temporal architectures. Experiments on epidemiology, meteorology, and power systems show competitive performance and strong adaptability in low‑data scenarios.
