Forecasting enthusiasts & data scientists exploring the art and science of predicting future trends and outcomes.
TimeGPT is an advanced generative pretrained transformer model specifically designed for time series forecasting. It caters to numerous domains such as retail, electricity, finance, and IoT with minimal coding required. TimeGPT stands out as the only turnkey foundation model for time series, operable via public APIs, upcoming Azure Studio integration, or on private infrastructure.
User-Friendly Low-Code Interface: Users can upload time series data and generate forecasts or detect anomalies with a single line of code.
Zero-Shot Inference: No prior training is needed for immediate forecast and anomaly detection, ensuring quick deployment and insights.
Fine-Tuning Capabilities: Users can enhance the model’s performance by training it on their specific datasets.
API and Integration: Seamless integration into applications through a robust API, with future support for Azure Studio, or the option to deploy on personal infrastructure.
Incorporate Exogenous Variables: Add external variables, like special events or prices, to improve forecast accuracy.
Multiple Series Forecasting: Simultaneously forecast multiple time series, optimizing resources.
Custom Loss Function and Cross-Validation: Tailor fine-tuning and validate models with out-of-the-box techniques for robustness.
Prediction Intervals and Irregular Timestamps: Provide intervals to quantify uncertainty and handle non-uniform interval series without preprocessing.
Anomaly Detection: Automatically detect anomalies using additional features for better performance.
Based on the self-attention mechanism introduced in "Attention is All You Need", TimeGPT is not derived from existing large language models. It uses an encoder-decoder structure with multiple layers, each featuring residual connections and layer normalization. This structure allows TimeGPT to interpret the input series, like a human reading a sentence, predicting future data points based on identified patterns.
