Kronos: A Foundation Model for the Language of Financial Markets
Summary
Kronos is a foundation model family trained for the language of financial markets, focusing on K-line sequences. It uses a two-stage approach: a specialized tokenizer that quantizes OHLCV data into hierarchical discrete tokens, followed by a large autoregressive Transformer. The project provides a live demo, a model zoo with multiple sizes, and comprehensive getting-started and finetuning guidance using Qlib, plus a citation to the arXiv paper and MIT license information.
