For n time periods where we have actual demand and forecast values:
Ideal value = 0;
MFE > 0, model tends to under-forecast
MFE < 0, model tends to over-forecast
MFE > 0, model tends to under-forecast
MFE < 0, model tends to over-forecast
h2. Mean Absolute Deviation (MAD)
For n time periods where we have actual demand and forecast values:
While MFE is a measure of forecast model bias, MAD indicates the absolute size of the errors
Example
Period | Demand | Forecast | Error | Absolute Error |
---|---|---|---|---|
3 | 11 | 13.5 | -2.5 | 2.5 |
4 | 9 | 13 | -4.0 | 4.0 |
