MOMENT is a family of foundation models for general-purpose time-series analysis. The models in this family (1) serve as a building block for diverse time-series analysis tasks (e.g., forecasting, classification, anomaly detection, and imputation, etc.), (2) are effective out-of-the-box, i.e., with no (or few) task-specific exemplars (enabling e.g., zero-shot forecasting, few-shot classification, etc.), and (3) are tunable using in-distribution and task-specific data to improve performance.

Environmental Impact

We train multiple models over many days resulting in significant energy usage and a sizeable carbon footprint. However, we hope that releasing our models will ensure that future time-series modeling efforts are quicker and more efficient, resulting in lower carbon emissions.

We use the Total Graphics Power (TGP) to calculate the total power consumed for training MOMENT models, although the total power consumed by the GPU will likely vary a little based on the GPU utilization while training our model. Our calculations do not account for power demands from other sources of our compute. We use 336.566 Kg C02/MWH as the standard value of CO2 emission per megawatt hour of energy consumed for Pittsburgh.

  • Hardware Type: NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPU
  • GPU Hours: 48
  • Compute Region: Pittsburgh, USA
  • Carbon Emission (tCO2eq):

Hardware

All models were trained and evaluated on a computing cluster consisting of 128 AMD EPYC 7502 CPUs, 503 GB of RAM, and 8 NVIDIA RTX A6000 GPUs each with 49 GiB RAM. All MOMENT variants were trained on a single A6000 GPU (with any data or model parallelism).

Questions About MOMENT-1-small

How much GPU memory does MOMENT-1-small need?

About 0.1 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (38M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run MOMENT-1-small on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

Can I use MOMENT-1-small commercially?

Yes. MOMENT-1-small is released under MIT License. The MIT License is a short permissive license. It permits commercial use, modification and redistribution, provided the copyright notice and permission notice are included.

Chronos-Bolt is a family of pretrained time series forecasting models which can be used for zero-shot forecasting. It is based on the T5 encoder-decoder architecture and has been trained on nearly 100 billion time series observations. It chunks the historical time series context into patches of multiple observations, which are then input into the encoder. The decoder then uses these representations to directly generate quantile forecasts across multiple future steps—a method known as…

Kronos is the first open-source foundation model for financial candlesticks (K-lines), trained on data from over 45 global exchanges. It is designed to handle the unique, high-noise characteristics of financial data. Kronos is a family of decoder-only foundation models, pre-trained specifically for the "language" of financial markets—K-line sequences. It leverages a novel two-stage framework: 1. A specialized tokenizer first quantizes continuous, multi-dimensional K-line data (OHLCV) into hierarchical discrete tokens. 2. A large, autoregressive Transformer is then pre-trained on these tokens, enabling it to serve as a unified model for diverse quantitative tasks. The success of large-scale…
