MDAPE: 'MDAPE()' calculate median absolute percentage error

In JanaJarecki/cognitiveutils: Utility functions for cognitive science and cognitive modeling

Description

MDAPE() calculate median absolute percentage error

Usage

MDAPE(obs, pred, response = .guessResponse(obs, pred), ...)

Arguments

obs	A numeric vector or matrix, the observed data. Can be continuous values or dicrete. Can be aggregated, and if so you must supply n (see below). The default assumes raw data.
pred	A numeric vector or matrix with predictions, in the same order as obs.
response	(default "discrete") A string with response format, "continuous" or "discrete" (e.g., choices). Can be abbreviated. Will be inferred if missing from obs, pred.
...	more arguments to be passed on to the fitting functions, see e.g. loglikelihood()

Value

Median absolute percentage error between obs and pred

# The business forecasting deal: exposing myths, eliminating bad practices,
# providing practical solutions (Vol. 27). John Wiley & Sons. (Exhibit A.3):
pred <- rep(1250, 6)
obs <- c(1150, 1400, 1200, 1350, 1100, 1300)
MDAPE(obs, pred, response = "con")
