With the increasing number of time series pre-trained models, designing transferability evaluation metrics for time series has become an urgent problem to address. While transferability evaluation has been extensively studied in computer vision, we aim to address a critical gap by developing tailored metrics for time series analysis. In this paper, we introduce TEMPLATE, a transferability estimation framework specifically tailored for versatile time series analysis, comprising three complementary metrics: (1) Dependency Learning Score quantifies a model’s capacity to capture temporal dependencies. (2) Pattern Learning Score evaluates the representation quality in extracting discriminative temporal patterns. (3) Task Adaptation Score assesses cross-task generalization capability, enabling versatile time series analysis. TEMPLATE presents a versatile framework compatible with both classification and regression paradigms. Through comprehensive benchmarking across 5 distinct downstream tasks, our method demonstrates superior capability in identifying optimal pre-trained models from heterogeneous model pools for transfer learning. Compared to the state-of-the-art method ETran, our approach improves the weighted Kendall's $\tau_w$ across 5 downstream tasks by 35\%. The code is available at https://github.com/ooooooover/TEMPLATE.
