The field of time series forecasting and analysis is rapidly evolving, with a focus on developing innovative methods to improve prediction accuracy and efficiency. Recent research has explored the integration of large language models (LLMs) with time series data, enabling the incorporation of contextual information and semantic knowledge into forecasting models. Another significant direction is the development of frameworks that combine multiple approaches, such as contrastive and generative methods, to leverage their complementary strengths. Additionally, there is a growing interest in applying time series analysis to various domains, including IoT, finance, and healthcare, where accurate forecasting and anomaly detection are crucial. Noteworthy papers in this area include QuiZSF, which proposes a lightweight and modular framework for zero-shot time series forecasting, and TALON, which enhances LLM-based forecasting by modeling temporal heterogeneity and enforcing semantic alignment. Furthermore, papers like TempOpt and AIS-LLM demonstrate the effectiveness of novel approaches in learning alarm relations and predicting maritime trajectories, respectively.
