By leveraging large language models (LLMs), LLMTIME achieves high performance without the need for specialized knowledge or extensive training. Here's how it works: LLMTIME encodes time series data as strings of numerical digits and utilizes pretrained LLMs to make predictions. This approach allows for robust models with probabilistic capabilities like probability assessment and sampling. LLMTIME outperforms purpose-built time series methods for various issues and exhibits excellent pattern extrapolation abilities. Key Benefits of LLMTIME: 🔹 Simple Application: No need for specialized knowledge or computational resources for fine-tuning. 🔹 Limited Data Availability: Works well with limited training or fine-tuning data. 🔹 Broad Pattern Extrapolation: Leverages pre-trained LLMs' abilities to extrapolate patterns, eliminating the need for specialized time series models. LLMs also exhibit biases consistent with time series features, making them effective for forecasting. They can handle multimodal distributions and missing data, enhancing their usefulness in time series analysis. In addition to forecasting, LLMs offer features like inquiring for extra side information and justifying predictions. The performance of LLMTIME improves with model size and the quality of uncertainty representation.
