In Part 1 of this series, we introduced Chronos-2, a time-series foundation model. We got our hands dirty by walking through a real case study and saw what Chronos-2 can do straight out of the box, with no training.
Part 1: A practitioner's walkthrough of univariate, multivariate, covariate-informed, and cold-start forecasting. The post Five Questions About Chronos-2, the Time Series Foundation Model appeared first on Towards Data Science .
arXiv:2606. 27438v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Since its initial release in 2020, Darts has become a widely used open-source Python library for time series analysis.
arXiv:2510. 00809v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: While Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) excel in zero-shot tasks, their behavior under continual fine tuning is poorly understood.
arXiv:2605. 20119v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We show that time series foundation models scale: a single training recipe produces reliable forecast-quality improvements from 4M to 2.
arXiv:2606. 07457v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: At commissioning time, Photovoltaic (PV) operators must forecast production before target-site observations are available, limiting the direct use of standard supervised forecasters.
An open, 2. 8-trillion-parameter model shipped with 47 pages of its own recipe.
arXiv:2607. 04919v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deploying a time series foundation model requires GPU infrastructure, engineering overhead, and carries no guarantee of improvement over XGBoost.
arXiv:2411. 11350v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep learning models have shown strong performance in load forecasting, but they generally require large amounts of data for model training before being applied to new scenarios, which limits their effectiveness in data-scarce scenarios.
Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) have recently emerged as a highly promising paradigm for cross-domain zero-shot forecasting. However, existing evaluation protocols predominantly rely on static benchmarks with fixed historical test windows.
arXiv:2606. 28670v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce MACROCAST, a lightweight Time Series Foundation Model (TSFM) for real-time macroeconomic forecasting.
arXiv:2607. 23146v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Inspired by recent breakthroughs in large language models for natural language processing, foundation models have emerged as a promising paradigm for zero-shot time series forecasting, enabling accurate predictions on datasets never seen during pre-training.
arXiv:2608. 05571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Retrieval-augmented forecasting promises to adapt frozen Time Series Foundation Models (TSFMs) to new domains without fine-tuning, but recent methods typically rely on learned fusion modules, i.
