| # m4_weekly (TsFile) |
| |
| Apache TsFile version of the **`m4_weekly`** subset of |
| [GIFT-Eval](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Salesforce/GiftEval). |
| |
| ## Overview |
| |
| GIFT-Eval is a benchmark for general time-series forecasting, covering 23 datasets |
| (≈144,000 series and 177M data points) across seven domains, ten frequencies, and a |
| range of forecast horizons. This repository contains a single subset of that benchmark. |
| |
| **`m4_weekly`** — Weekly-frequency series from the M4 forecasting competition. |
| |
| All `.tsfile` files are stored under `data/`. |
| |
| ## Schema (TsFile structure) |
| |
| - **Time** (INT64, milliseconds) — the timestamp of each observation. |
| - Each series is stored as a TsFile device; per-series identifiers from GIFT-Eval are |
| carried as TAG columns, and the observed values are FIELD columns. |
| |
| ## Usage |
| |
| Read the `.tsfile` files with the Apache TsFile Java or Python SDK. |
