It achieves the top average rank among pretrained foundation models on GIFT-Eval, fev-bench, and the TIME leaderboard, though its weights are released under a non-commercial, non-production license.", "body_md": "Google Research has released TimesFM-3, a 330 million parameter time series foundation model that forecasts multiple related series in a single forward pass. Unlike every TimesFM checkpoint through 2.5, it is pretrained natively for multivariate forecasting, accepting multiple targets, past covariates, and past-future covariates with no task-specific fine-tuning. It takes the top average rank among pretrained foundation models on GIFT-Eval, fev-bench, and the TIME leaderboard. The weights, however, ship under a non-commercial, non-production license.\n\nThe post [Google AI Releases TimesFM-3: A 330M Parameter Zero-Shot Foundation Model For Multivariate Time Series Forecasting](https://www.marktechpost.com/2026/08/31/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for-multivariate-time-series-forecasting/) appeared first on [MarkTechPost](https://www.marktechpost.com).", "url": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for", "canonical_source": "https://www.marktechpost.com/2026/08/31/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for-multivariate-time-series-forecasting/", "published_at": "2026-08-31 21:20:16+00:00", "updated_at": "2026-08-31 21:51:54.700288+00:00", "lang": "en", "topics": ["artificial-intelligence", "machine-learning", "ai-research"], "entities": ["Google Research", "TimesFM-3", "GIFT-Eval", "fev-bench", "TIME leaderboard"], "alternates": {"html": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for", "markdown": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for.md", "text": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for.txt", "jsonld": "https://wpnews.pro/news/google-ai-releases-timesfm-3-a-330m-parameter-zero-shot-foundation-model-for.jsonld"}}
