PathFM: Fast Generative Forecasting of Multivariate Trajectories

PathFM is a trajectory-based forecasting model that uses flow matching to generate complete future paths for multivariate time series. It distills the sampling process to one or two steps, sharing a history attention cache across draws, allowing multiple path generation in roughly the time of a single quantile query. The model achieves competitive marginal accuracy on fev-bench and TIME, and outperforms baselines on the new Forecast Path Score Bench (fps‑bench) with energy, variogram, and downstream metrics, while maintaining long‑run variability in chaotic systems.

GateTS: Versatile and Efficient Forecasting via Attention-Inspired routed Mixture-of-Experts

GateTS introduces a streamlined univariate forecasting model that merges sparse Mixture-of-Experts computation with an attention-inspired gating mechanism, eliminating the need for auxiliary load‑balancing losses. The architecture achieves superior predictive accuracy across both short‑ and long‑term horizons, including intermittent signals, while using far fewer parameters than leading transformer models such as PatchTST. Empirical tests on diverse datasets show GateTS is computationally more efficient than LSTM, enabling cost‑effective inference for real‑world time‑series applications.

PathFM: Fast Generative Forecasting of Multivariate Trajectories

PathFM is a trajectory-based forecasting model that uses flow matching to generate complete future paths for multivariate time series. By distilling the model to one or two steps and sharing a history attention cache, it can produce multiple paths in the time of a single quantile query and optimize calibration loss directly. The paper demonstrates competitive marginal accuracy on fev-bench and TIME, and superior aggregate path scores on the new fps-bench, while maintaining long‑run variability in chaotic systems.

Timer-M1: A Multivariate Time Series Foundation Model via Learning Primitives

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.
