# MdAE: Median Absolute Error
|
||||
|
||||
> "When outliers scream but you need to hear the whisper of typical performance."
|
||||
|
||||
Median Absolute Error (MdAE) measures the middle value of all absolute errors. Unlike MAE which averages errors, MdAE finds the median, providing exceptional robustness against outliers and extreme values.
|
||||
|
||||
## Historical Context
|
||||
|
||||
MdAE emerged from robust statistics, where the median has long been preferred over the mean for its resistance to outliers. In forecasting and machine learning, MdAE provides a more stable measure of typical prediction accuracy when data contains anomalies or heavy-tailed distributions.
|
||||
|
||||
## Architecture & Physics
|
||||
|
||||
MdAE maintains a sorted view of errors through a specialized ring buffer. When new errors arrive, they replace the oldest while maintaining sort order, enabling O(1) median retrieval. This makes MdAE both robust and efficient.
|
||||
|
||||
### Properties
|
||||
|
||||
* **Outlier-robust**: Unaffected by extreme values
|
||||
* **Non-negative**: MdAE ≥ 0, with 0 indicating perfect prediction
|
||||
* **Same units**: Results are in the same units as the original data
|
||||
* **Stable**: Small changes in data produce small changes in output
|
||||
|
||||
## Mathematical Foundation
|
||||
|
||||
### 1. Absolute Error
|
||||
|
||||
For each observation, calculate the absolute difference:
|
||||
|
||||
$$e_i = |y_i - \hat{y}_i|$$
|
||||
|
||||
Where:
|
||||
* $y_i$ = actual value
|
||||
* $\hat{y}_i$ = predicted value
|
||||
|
||||
### 2. Median Calculation
|
||||
|
||||
Find the middle value of the sorted errors:
|
||||
|
||||
$$MdAE = \text{median}(e_1, e_2, ..., e_n)$$
|
||||
|
||||
For odd n: middle element
|
||||
For even n: average of two middle elements
|
||||
|
||||
### 3. Running Update (O(1))
|
||||
|
||||
QuanTAlib uses a sorted ring buffer for efficient median retrieval:
|
||||
|
||||
$$MdAE = \begin{cases}
|
||||
e_{(n+1)/2} & \text{if } n \text{ is odd} \\
|
||||
\frac{e_{n/2} + e_{n/2+1}}{2} & \text{if } n \text{ is even}
|
||||
\end{cases}$$
|
||||
|
||||
## Implementation Details
|
||||
|
||||
### Usage Patterns
|
||||
|
||||
```csharp
|
||||
// Streaming mode - update with each new observation
|
||||
var mdae = new Mdae(period: 20);
|
||||
var result = mdae.Update(actualValue, predictedValue);
|
||||
|
||||
// Batch mode - calculate for entire series
|
||||
var results = Mdae.Calculate(actualSeries, predictedSeries, period: 20);
|
||||
|
||||
// Span mode - zero-allocation for high performance
|
||||
Mdae.Batch(actualSpan, predictedSpan, outputSpan, period: 20);
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
### Parameters
|
||||
|
||||
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|
||||
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
|
||||
| **period** | int | Lookback window for median calculation (must be > 0) |
|
||||
|
||||
### Properties
|
||||
|
||||
| Property | Type | Description |
|
||||
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
|
||||
| **Last** | TValue | Most recent MdAE value |
|
||||
| **IsHot** | bool | True when buffer is full |
|
||||
| **Name** | string | Indicator name (e.g., "Mdae(20)") |
|
||||
| **WarmupPeriod** | int | Number of periods before valid output |
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance Profile
|
||||
|
||||
| Metric | Score | Notes |
|
||||
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
|
||||
| **Throughput** | ~20 ns/bar | O(1) with sorted buffer |
|
||||
| **Allocations** | 0 | Uses pre-allocated buffers |
|
||||
| **Complexity** | O(1) | Constant time per update |
|
||||
| **Accuracy** | 10/10 | Exact calculation |
|
||||
| **Timeliness** | 9/10 | No lag beyond the period |
|
||||
| **Robustness** | 10/10 | Immune to outliers |
|
||||
|
||||
## Interpretation
|
||||
|
||||
| MdAE Range | Interpretation |
|
||||
| :--- | :--- |
|
||||
| **0** | Perfect prediction |
|
||||
| **Low** | Typical predictions are close to actual values |
|
||||
| **High** | Typical prediction error is large |
|
||||
| **MdAE < MAE** | Outliers are inflating the mean |
|
||||
| **MdAE ≈ MAE** | Errors are symmetrically distributed |
|
||||
|
||||
## Comparison with MAE
|
||||
|
||||
| Scenario | MAE | MdAE |
|
||||
| :--- | :--- | :--- |
|
||||
| **No outliers** | Similar values | Similar values |
|
||||
| **Single large outlier** | Significantly affected | Unchanged |
|
||||
| **Heavy-tailed errors** | Inflated | Stable |
|
||||
| **Symmetric errors** | Equal | Equal |
|
||||
|
||||
## Common Use Cases
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Anomaly Detection**: When some predictions may be wildly off
|
||||
2. **Financial Markets**: Price forecasting with occasional extreme moves
|
||||
3. **Robust Evaluation**: Model comparison ignoring outlier performance
|
||||
4. **Quality Control**: Track typical accuracy without noise
|
||||
|
||||
## Edge Cases
|
||||
|
||||
* **Identical Values**: Returns 0 when actual equals predicted
|
||||
* **NaN Handling**: Uses last valid value substitution
|
||||
* **Single Input**: Not supported (requires two series)
|
||||
* **Period = 1**: Returns current absolute error
|
||||
* **All Same Errors**: Returns that error value
