NeST is a framework that adapts large language models (LLMs) for continuous time‑series forecasting by creating neighborhood‑aware text prototypes and aligning them with temporal representations through a nearest‑neighbor contrastive objective. It retrieves the most relevant prototypes and uses them to conditionally modulate time‑series features, enabling more effective integration of textual and temporal information. Experiments show that NeST outperforms state‑of‑the‑art methods on eight benchmarks, reduces MSE by 1.2% for long‑term forecasting, improves zero‑shot forecasting by 4.9%, and boosts R² by 3.3% on a real‑world photovoltaic power forecasting task.

The paper introduces PaCTS, a method that generates instance‑adaptive latent prompts—continuous embedding tokens—to provide compact contextual information for frozen time‑series foundation models (TSFMs). These prompts are constructed from instance‑specific global statistics and refined with segment‑level temporal data, enabling the model to capture both global characteristics and local temporal variations. Experiments show that PaCTS improves forecasting performance across various context lengths and model architectures, often outperforming the same backbone with double the context while reducing inference computation, and it also offers stronger improvements and better out‑of‑distribution generalization compared to weight‑space adaptation methods.
