ROAR is a Retrieval Opportunity-Aware Refinement framework designed for zero-shot time series forecasting. It enhances predictions by weighting queries according to base-forecast difficulty and the improvement potential of retrieved historical candidates, then learning a gate to control correction strength. The method jointly calibrates the forecasting module and gate, anchoring the final prediction to an initial refined output, and achieves the lowest average MSE across seven benchmarks compared to other methods.

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.
