RocketPFN: Accurate Time Series Classification via In-Context Learning (opens in new tab)

We introduce RocketPFN, a training-free pipeline for time series classification that combines random convolutional feature extraction (Rocket) with in-context classification via a pretrained tabular foundation model (TabPFN v2.5). On 92 UCR datasets (30-resample protocol), RocketPFN matches HC2, the strongest published method on the archive, in mean accuracy (both 0.900, Wilcoxon p=0.50), with no training on the target data and a median inferenc...
