Toto 2.0 models show scaling benefits in time series forecasting

Researchers have introduced Toto 2.0, a suite of five open-weight time series forecasting models that demonstrate the effectiveness of scaling foundation models. The models, trained using a single recipe, show improved forecast quality as their parameter count increases from 4 million to 2.5 billion. Toto 2.0 has achieved state-of-the-art results on three key forecasting benchmarks: BOOM, GIFT-Eval, and TIME. AI

IMPACT Demonstrates that scaling laws apply to time series forecasting, potentially improving accuracy across various applications.

    Toto 2.0: Time Series Forecasting Enters the Scaling Era

    We show that time series foundation models scale: a single training recipe produces reliable forecast-quality improvements from 4M to 2.5B parameters. We release Toto 2.0, a family of five open-weights forecasting models trained under this recipe. The Toto 2.0 family sets a new s…
