How does the TimesFM-ICF model perform compared to fine-tuned models?

TimesFM-ICF (In-Context Fine-tuning) demonstrates comparable performance to TimesFM-FT (Fine-Tuned) models, which are fine-tuned on specific datasets. In some cases, TimesFM-ICF rivals or outperforms TimesFM-FT, especially in long-horizon forecasting, without the need for explicit fine-tuning.
