Timer‑M1 is a pretrained multivariate time‑series foundation model that learns with primitives for zero‑shot forecasting. It uses a primitive‑based data synthesis and pretraining pipeline to generate series with shared temporal and relational patterns, assembling them into multivariate samples with distinct channel roles. The model employs gated two‑dimensional Transformer blocks that dynamically allocate cross‑variate attention, achieving top performance on several large‑scale forecasting benchmarks.

The paper introduces a vertical federated learning framework that learns one‑step‑ahead cross‑client temporal interdependencies in decentralized industrial systems with heterogeneous, proprietary models. Each client compresses high‑dimensional sensor data into low‑dimensional latent states via a nonlinear state‑space model, while a central Graph Attention Network (GAT) learns a state‑transition model and derives attention coefficients that reflect cross‑client interactions. The authors analytically link these attention coefficients to the Jacobian of the transition model, proving bounded closeness to a centralized oracle, and validate the approach with synthetic and real‑world experiments showing improved federated root‑cause analysis.

AdaMamba introduces an adaptive frequency-gated Mamba architecture for long‑term time series forecasting. The model integrates an interaction learning module that captures cross‑variable dependencies and multi‑scale context, and an adaptive frequency‑gated state space module that generates context‑dependent frequency bases and unifies temporal forgetting into a single time‑frequency gate. Experiments on seven public benchmarks and four domain‑specific datasets show that AdaMamba consistently outperforms state‑of‑the‑art baselines while remaining computationally efficient.

Time series foundation models (TSFMs) have emerged as general-purpose models for time series analysis, but pretraining alone is often insufficient for reliable downstream deployment. Bridging this gap requires further intervention to handle domain shift, task heterogeneity, limited supervision, and computational constraints, which motivates post-training as a broad class of methods to adapt, augment, compose, calibrate, or specialize pretrained TSFMs for downstream tasks.
