/// <summary>
/// MAE: Mean Absolute Error
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// MAE measures the average magnitude of errors between paired observations,
/// without considering their direction. It is the mean of the absolute differences
/// between actual and predicted values.
///
/// Formula:
/// MAE = (1/n) * Σ|actual - predicted|
///
/// Uses a RingBuffer for O(1) streaming updates with running sum.
///
/// Key properties:
/// - Always non-negative (MAE ≥ 0)
/// - Same units as the original data
/// - Less sensitive to outliers than MSE/RMSE
/// - MAE = 0 indicates perfect prediction
/// </remarks>
