Zeus

Zeus is a tuning-free, multi-task time series foundation model for time series analysis. It supports downstream tasks including point forecasting, probabilistic forecasting, imputation, anomaly detection and classification in a tuning-free manner. Trained on a large-scale real-world and synthetic datasets, it achieves state-of-the-art performance among public models on LTSF benchmark, GIFT-Eval, UCR Anomaly Detection Archive, UEA Classification Archive.

🌟Most pretrained models focus solely on forecasting, with other tasks relying on task-specific fine-tuning. In contrast, Zeus is the first to support the following mainstream time series tasks in a tuning-free manner:

✅ Zero-shot ❌ Unsupported ⭕️ Fine-tuned required

Quick Start

1. Environment and Dependencies This project is built upon the BasicTS library. Install it with pip:

    pip install basicts>=1.1.0
   

2. Load Model

   Zeus can be loaded from BasicTS library

   from basicts.models.Zeus import ZeusForPrediction # ZeusForImputation, ZeusForClassification
   

   or loaded from this repository

   hf download GestaltCog/zeus
   

   from zeus.modeling_zeus import ZeusForPrediction # ZeusForImputation, ZeusForClassification
   

   Then load the model weights

   model = ZeusForPrediction.from_pretrained(
       "zeus",
       trust_remote_code=True,
       attn_implementation="flash_attention_2",
       device_map="cuda"
   )
   

3. Run

   prediction = model.generate(torch.rand(1, 256, device="cuda"), prediction_length=16, normalize=True)
