Probabilistic Decision-Making
Mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) is a measure used to assess the accuracy of a forecasting method by calculating the average absolute percentage difference between forecasted values and actual values. This metric helps businesses understand how close their forecasts are to actual performance, enabling them to refine their forecasting techniques, such as moving averages and exponential smoothing, to improve future predictions.
