/// <summary>
/// ME: Mean Error (also known as Mean Bias Error)
/// </summary>
/// <remarks>
/// ME measures the average error between actual and predicted values,
/// preserving the sign to indicate systematic bias in predictions.
///
/// Formula:
/// ME = (1/n) * Σ(actual - predicted)
///
/// Key properties:
/// - Can be positive or negative
/// - Positive ME indicates under-prediction (actual > predicted)
/// - Negative ME indicates over-prediction (actual &lt; predicted)
/// - ME = 0 indicates no systematic bias (but not necessarily accurate predictions)
/// - Errors can cancel out, hiding large individual errors
/// </remarks>
