AME-TS: Anchored Mixture-of-Experts for Time Series Forecasting

arXiv:2605.25166v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Time series forecasting models are increasingly scaled through large Transformer backbones, yet most existing approaches process all series through a shared dense computation path despite substantial heterogeneity in temporal structure. Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) offers a natural alternative by enabling conditional computation, but standard MoE routing leaves expert specialization weakly identified and often unstable during downstream adaptation. We propose AME-TS, a structure-guided sparse time series foundation model that aligns expert routing wi

Why this matters
Why now

This research is emerging as large AI models, particularly Transformers, are being scaled for increasingly complex tasks like time series forecasting, pushing the boundaries of existing computational paradigms.
