## Runs On

What it takes to serve granite-timeseries-ttm-r2 (805,280 parameters): the memory its weights need at each precision, and the cheapest way to rent enough data-center GPUs to hold them.

## SAVRN's Notes on granite-timeseries-ttm-r2

TinyTimeMixer is IBM's argument that forecasting does not need a large model. This release has about 805,000 parameters, under one million, and it forecasts multivariate series either zero-shot or after a quick fine-tune.

It runs comfortably on a CPU, which makes it practical to forecast millions of series. Apache 2.0 allows commercial use. For capacity, energy or demand planning, it is a fast baseline to beat before spending on anything bigger.

### Granite-TimeSeries-TTM-R2 Model Card

TinyTimeMixers (TTMs) are compact pre-trained models for Multivariate Time-Series Forecasting, open-sourced by IBM Research. With model sizes starting from 1M params, TTM introduces the notion of the first-ever “tiny” pre-trained models for Time-Series Forecasting. The paper describing TTM was accepted at [NeurIPS 24](https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper_files/paper/2024/hash/874a4d89f2d04b4bcf9a2c19545cf040-Abstract-Conference.html).

TTM outperforms other models demanding billions of parameters in several popular zero-shot and few-shot forecasting benchmarks. TTMs are lightweight forecasters, pre-trained on publicly available time series data with various augmentations. TTM provides state-of-the-art zero-shot forecasts and can easily be fine-tuned for multi-variate forecasts with just 5% of the training data to be competitive. Note that zeroshot, fine-tuning and inference tasks using TTM can easily be executed on 1 GPU or on laptops.
