This repository hosts the BLAST dataset introduced in the paper ***[BLAST: Balanced Sampling Time Series Corpus for Universal Forecasting Models](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2505.17871)***.

To learn how to generate this dataset, please refer to the instructions provided [here](https://github.com/zezhishao/BLAST).

For guidance on using BLAST to train universal forecasting models—such as TimeMoE or ChronosBolt—please see the [BasicTS](https://github.com/GestaltCogTeam/BasicTS) repository.
