About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Compute the mean arctangent absolute percentage error (MAAPE) incrementally.
The mean arctangent absolute percentage error is defined as
where f_i
is the forecast value and a_i
is the actual value.
npm install @stdlib/stats-incr-maape
var incrmaape = require( '@stdlib/stats-incr-maape' );
Returns an accumulator function
which incrementally computes the mean arctangent absolute percentage error.
var accumulator = incrmaape();
If provided input values f
and a
, the accumulator function returns an updated mean arctangent absolute percentage error. If not provided input values f
and a
, the accumulator function returns the current mean arctangent absolute percentage error.
var accumulator = incrmaape();
var m = accumulator( 2.0, 3.0 );
// returns ~0.3218
m = accumulator( 1.0, 4.0 );
// returns ~0.4826
m = accumulator( 3.0, 5.0 );
// returns ~0.4486
m = accumulator();
// returns ~0.4486
- Input values are not type checked. If provided
NaN
or a value which, when used in computations, results inNaN
, the accumulated value isNaN
for all future invocations. If non-numeric inputs are possible, you are advised to type check and handle accordingly before passing the value to the accumulator function. - Note that, unlike the mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), the mean arctangent absolute percentage error is expressed in radians on the interval [0,π/2].
var randu = require( '@stdlib/random-base-randu' );
var incrmaape = require( '@stdlib/stats-incr-maape' );
var accumulator;
var v1;
var v2;
var i;
// Initialize an accumulator:
accumulator = incrmaape();
// For each simulated datum, update the mean arctangent absolute percentage error...
for ( i = 0; i < 100; i++ ) {
v1 = ( randu()*100.0 ) + 50.0;
v2 = ( randu()*100.0 ) + 50.0;
accumulator( v1, v2 );
}
console.log( accumulator() );
