arXiv:2606. 28670v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We introduce MACROCAST, a lightweight Time Series Foundation Model (TSFM) for real-time macroeconomic forecasting.
arXiv:2511. 18191v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Time series forecasting drives operational decisions under tight latency budgets, and autoregressive time series foundation models (TSFMs) increasingly deliver the most accurate forecasts.
arXiv:2606. 27282v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time-series forecasting research has been moving steadily toward larger architectures, from specialized transformers to general-purpose foundation models, on the assumption that capacity is what unlocks accuracy.
arXiv:2608. 16098v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Multivariate time-series forecasting faces a structural dilemma: sharing one temporal predictor across variables is parameter-efficient but forces heterogeneous variables through an identical history-to-future map, whereas learning an independent predictor per variable restores flexibility at a cost that grows with the product of variable count, context length, and horizon.
Time-series forecasting research has been moving steadily toward larger architectures, from specialized transformers to general-purpose foundation models, on the assumption that capacity is what unlocks accuracy. We take the opposite position: most of the gap can be closed at far lower cost by tuning preprocessing rather than scaling models.
arXiv:2607. 24892v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Text-conditioned time-series forecasting predicts a series from both its numerical history and natural-language context, allowing forecasts to account for events and constraints that the past alone cannot reveal.
arXiv:2608. 03259v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: As time-series foundation models have emerged, the need for benchmarks that can evaluate their forecasting ability in meaningful ways has become increasingly important.
RATL is a plug‑in method for multivariate time‑series forecasting that uses a frozen base forecaster to build a memory of its historical forecast residuals. During inference, RATL retrieves residual trajectories from similar past contexts and employs a set‑aware router to combine them, providing learned feedback correction. Experiments demonstrate that this residual‑retrieval approach improves the performance of the base forecaster across various benchmarks and backbones.
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.
The paper introduces LiveMacroEval, a live benchmark that tests large language model (LLM) agents’ ability to produce hourly nowcasts for sixteen major U.S. macroeconomic indicators before their official release. It evaluates LLM performance against institutional nowcasts, Bloomberg ECOS consensus, and an auto-ARIMA baseline using a LiveMacro Score linked to announcement-window equity returns and a LiveBetting Score from simulated Polymarket-style trading. Over six months, state-of-the-art LLMs with web search achieved overall accuracy comparable to professional benchmarks, though performance varied across indicators.
arXiv:2602. 16864v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Time series (TS) modeling has come a long way from early statistical, mainly linear, approaches to the current trend in TS foundation models.

arXiv:2603. 15506v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We argue that the current practice of evaluating AI/ML time-series forecasting models, predominantly on benchmarks characterized by strong, persistent periodicities and seasonalities, obscures real progress by overlooking the performance of efficient classical methods.
