50M params | 4K context | $0.00025 per forecast | CC-BY-4.0

YingLong 50M is the mid-size checkpoint in the YingLong family, balancing forecast quality with inference speed. Like the smaller YingLong release, the official first-party surfaces describe a bidirectional forecasting model with quantile outputs rather than a causal decoder. It is a good default when you want more capacity than the 6M variant without the latency of the larger checkpoints.

Model Classification

Family

YingLong

Type

time series foundation model

Pretrained time-series model exposed on TSFM.ai for zero-shot or few-shot forecasting workloads.

Training Data

Official model card states that the released YingLong checkpoints were pre-trained on 78B time points.

Recommended For

  • Dense probabilistic forecasting with fine-grained quantile coverage
  • Workloads that need richer distribution coverage than standard low-count quantile sets

Strengths

  • Quantile-focused output head provides unusually dense probabilistic coverage
  • Clear parameter-size ladder from 6M to 300M for cost-accuracy tradeoffs

Limitations

  • Newer family with less public benchmark coverage than the most established TSFMs
  • Dense quantile output increases per-token cost compared to point-forecast-only models
