## GIFT-Eval
<!-- Provide a quick summary of the dataset. -->
![gift eval main figure](gifteval.png)

We present GIFT-Eval, a benchmark designed to advance zero-shot time series forecasting by facilitating evaluation across diverse datasets. GIFT-Eval includes 23 datasets covering 144,000 time series and 177 million data points, with data spanning seven domains, 10 frequencies, and a range of forecast lengths. This benchmark aims to set a new standard, guiding future innovations in time series foundation models.
