# MASE: Mean Absolute Scaled Error
|
||||
|
||||
> "A good forecast is one that's better than guessing. MASE tells you exactly how much better."
|
||||
|
||||
Mean Absolute Scaled Error (MASE) normalizes forecast errors by the average error of a naive "random walk" forecast (using the previous value as the prediction). This makes MASE scale-independent and interpretable across different time series.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture & Physics
|
||||
|
||||
MASE computes a ratio: the mean absolute error of your predictions divided by the mean absolute error of a naive forecast. The naive forecast simply predicts that tomorrow's value equals today's value.
|
||||
|
||||
### Interpretation Guide
|
||||
|
||||
| MASE Value | Interpretation |
|
||||
| ---------- | -------------- |
|
||||
| **MASE < 1** | Forecast is better than naive (good) |
|
||||
| **MASE = 1** | Forecast equals naive performance |
|
||||
| **MASE > 1** | Forecast is worse than naive (bad) |
|
||||
| **MASE = 0** | Perfect forecast |
|
||||
|
||||
The naive baseline captures the inherent "forecastability" of the series. A highly volatile series has a larger naive error, making a given absolute error less significant.
|
||||
|
||||
## Mathematical Foundation
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Absolute Error
|
||||
|
||||
$$e_t = |y_t - \hat{y}_t|$$
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Naive Forecast Scale
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{Scale} = \frac{1}{n-1} \sum_{i=2}^{n} |y_i - y_{i-1}|$$
|
||||
|
||||
The scale represents the average absolute change from one period to the next.
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Mean Absolute Scaled Error
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{MASE} = \frac{\frac{1}{n} \sum_{t=1}^{n} |y_t - \hat{y}_t|}{\frac{1}{n-1} \sum_{i=2}^{n} |y_i - y_{i-1}|}$$
|
||||
|
||||
Or more simply:
|
||||
|
||||
$$\text{MASE} = \frac{\text{MAE}}{\text{Scale}}$$
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Profile
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Score | Notes |
|
||||
| ------ | ----- | ----- |
|
||||
| **Throughput** | ~35 ns/bar | Dual running sums for error and scale |
|
||||
| **Allocations** | 0 | Zero-allocation implementation |
|
||||
| **Complexity** | O(1) | Constant time per update |
|
||||
| **Accuracy** | 9/10 | Handles edge cases well |
|
||||
| **Timeliness** | 7/10 | Rolling window introduces lag |
|
||||
| **Robustness** | 10/10 | Works with zero/negative values |
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Pitfalls
|
||||
|
||||
### Flat Series Problem
|
||||
|
||||
When the actual series is constant (no change between values), the scale becomes zero. The implementation handles this by returning the raw MAE when scale is near zero.
|
||||
|
||||
### Initial Warmup
|
||||
|
||||
The scale calculation requires at least two values (to compute differences). During warmup, MASE defaults to MAE / 1.0.
|
||||
|
||||
### Different from Other Scaled Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
Unlike MAPE which scales by actual values, MASE scales by the difficulty of the forecasting problem itself.
|
||||
|
||||
## Usage
|
||||
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
// Create MASE calculator with period 14
|
||||
var mase = new Mase(14);
|
||||
|
||||
// Stream values
|
||||
var result = mase.Update(actual, predicted);
|
||||
Console.WriteLine($"MASE: {result.Value:F4}");
|
||||
// MASE < 1 = better than naive, MASE > 1 = worse than naive
|
||||
|
||||
// Batch calculation
|
||||
var maseSeries = Mase.Calculate(actualSeries, predictedSeries, 14);
|
||||
|
||||
// Zero-allocation span version
|
||||
Mase.Batch(actualSpan, predictedSpan, outputSpan, 14);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Comparison with Other Error Metrics
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Scale-Independent | Handles Zero | Symmetric | Interpretable |
|
||||
| ------ | ----------------- | ------------ | --------- | ------------- |
|
||||
| **MASE** | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ (vs naive) |
|
||||
| **MAPE** | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ | ✅ (% error) |
|
||||
| **SMAPE** | ✅ | ⚠️ | ✅ | ⚠️ (bounded %) |
|
||||
| **MAE** | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ (raw units) |
|
||||
| **RMSE** | ❌ | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ (raw units) |
|
||||
|
||||
MASE is particularly valuable when:
|
||||
|
||||
* Comparing forecasts across different series
|
||||
* Evaluating against a natural baseline (naive forecast)
|
||||
* Working with data that includes zeros
|
||||
* Needing symmetric treatment of over/under predictions
