What is chronos-bolt-tiny?
Chronos-Bolt-tiny is a lightweight time series forecasting model that represents a significant advancement in efficient time series prediction. As part of the Chronos-Bolt family, it has been trained on nearly 100 billion time series observations and utilizes a T5 encoder-decoder architecture to provide zero-shot forecasting capabilities. The model is particularly notable for its efficiency, being 250 times faster and 20 times more memory-efficient than traditional Chronos models.
Implementation Details
The model employs a unique approach by chunking historical time series data into patches of multiple observations that are fed into the encoder. The decoder then utilizes these representations to generate quantile forecasts across multiple future steps through direct multi-step forecasting. This architectural design enables both efficient processing and accurate predictions.
