Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Chronos: Learning the Language of Time Series
I do not have a horse in the race, but it is interesting to see open source comparisons to traditional timeseries strategies: https://github.com/Nixtla/nixtla/tree/main/experiments/amazo...
In general, the M-Competitions (https://forecasters.org/resources/time-series-data/), the olympics of timeseries forecasting, have proven frustrating for ML methods... linear models do shockingly well and the ML models that have won, generally seem to be variants of older tree-based methods (ie. LightGBM is a favorite).
Will be interesting to see whether the Transformer architecture ends up making real progress here.

[P] Beware of false (FB-)Prophets: Introducing the fastest implementation of auto ARIMA [ever].
Yes, for example we have this paper in long-horizon settings using our library NeuralForecast and this experiment with other of our libraries MLForecast, both of them outperforming autoarima.

Here we did some comparison with prophet in the zillow real-state dataset https://github.com/Nixtla/nixtla/tree/main/utils/experiments/zillow-prophet

Automated Time Series Processing and Forecasting
Users can deploy the pipeline in their cloud quickly. We use terraform (https://github.com/Nixtla/nixtla/tree/main/iac/terraform/aws), so it is very simple to deploy the pipeline on AWS. We are working to release versions of terraform on other clouds such as Azure and Google Cloud.

[P] Deep Learning for time series forecasting (neuralforecast, python package)
We are already working on the comparison. For the moment, the blog shows that another of our libraries, MLForecast (https://github.com/Nixtla/mlforecast), has an excellent performance in this use case.

Automated Time Series Processing and Forecasting
We missed that, sorry. At the moment, for forecasting the pipeline uses the mlforecast library (https://github.com/nixtla/mlforecast) that builds upong Sckilearn .xgboos and lightbmg .
