Salesforce 发布 GIFT-Eval-CTX:面向情境化时间序列预测的开源基准

Why we picked it

Salesforce 搞了个新基准,专门测 LLM 能不能把'下周有热浪'这类文字信息变成更准的数字预测。GPT-5.6 Sol 加上下文误差降了四成,还开源了整套数据集,做时序预测的可以直接拿来跑分。

Salesforce Research 推出 GIFT-Eval-CTX,一个用于评估 LLM 和智能体在情境化预测任务上表现的开源基准,包含来自 20 个真实数据集的 10,000 个任务。传统预测模型只能从历史数值中学习,无法将热浪、产品发布等已知事件转化为量化调整,该基准正是针对这一缺口。

基准测试结果显示,向模型提供结构化的未来事件上下文后,GPT-5.6 Sol 的预测误差降低 40.7%,Claude Opus 4.8 降低 29.6%。表现最好的方案 MoiraiAgent 将 LLM 与 Moirai-2 模型和代码执行相结合,比最佳纯历史数据模型误差低 36.3%,且在更长预测窗口上优势更大。

对能源运营、供应链和 IT 团队而言,这个基准提供了一套可复现的评估方式。基准、数据集和排行榜均已开源,开发者可以直接上手构建具备情境感知能力的预测系统。

GIFT-Eval-CTX: An Open-Source Benchmark for Contextual Forecasting

🔗 Blog: https://t.co/7Fk34vimDu 🔗 Paper: https://t.co/gWQYFrqAl1

Energy operators, supply chain leaders, and IT teams often know what's coming, from a heatwave to a product launch. But that knowledge lives in text, and traditional forecasting models can only learn from historical numbers with no way to translate real-world context into quantitative adjustments.

GIFT-Eval-CTX measures how well LLMs and agents turn that forward-looking context into accurate numerical forecasts across 10,000 tasks from 20 real-world datasets.

→ Structured context about upcoming events reduced GPT-5.6 Sol's forecasting error by 40.7% and Claude Opus 4.8's by 29.6% → MoiraiAgent, which pairs an LLM with Moirai-2 and code execution, achieved 36.3% lower error than the best history-only model, with its lead growing on longer forecasts

The benchmark, dataset, and leaderboard are openly available for anyone building context-aware forecasting.
