LLMs generate grounded explanations for time series forecasts

Researchers have developed a new framework for generating natural language explanations for time series forecasts, aiming to reduce the hallucination issues often seen with large language models. This domain-agnostic approach extracts structured explanatory factors from historical analyst-written explanations and uses evidence-conditioned generation to ensure explanations are grounded in verifiable data. Evaluations on financial forecasting for the NASDAQ-100 index and freight pricing data from Vortexa showed that the generated explanations were comparable to those written by human analysts in terms of readability, consistency, and persuasiveness. AI

IMPACT This framework could improve the interpretability and trustworthiness of AI-driven forecasts in critical decision-making domains.

    Using LLMs for Explainable, Data-Driven Insight Generation from Time Series

    arXiv:2607.18271v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time series forecasts are widely used in decision-critical domains, where they are rarely consumed without accompanying explanations. Producing such explanations is usually a manual and costly process, and attempts to automate it us…
