Salesforce Research launches GIFT-Eval-CTX, a contextual forecasting benchmark using known future information
LiJunnan0409 · x · 2026-11-10
Traditional time-series forecasting assumes the past alone predicts the future, yet real-world forecasting has forward-looking information: planned promotions, expected disruptions, changing operating conditions. Salesforce Research released GIFT-Eval-CTX, a contextual-forecasting benchmark asking whether forecasting systems can convert reliable information about future changes into accurate numerical forecasts. Leaderboard submissions, a blog, and a paper are all live.
