# Metric Card for MAPE
## Metric Description
Mean Absolute Error (MAPE) is the mean of the percentage error of difference between the predicted $x_i$ and actual $y_i$ numeric values:
## How to Use
At minimum, this metric requires predictions and references as inputs.
```python
>>> mape_metric = evaluate.load("mape")
>>> predictions = [2.5, 0.0, 2, 8]
>>> references = [3, -0.5, 2, 7]
>>> results = mape_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references)
```
### Inputs
Mandatory inputs:
- `predictions`: numeric array-like of shape (`n_samples,`) or (`n_samples`, `n_outputs`), representing the estimated target values.
- `references`: numeric array-like of shape (`n_samples,`) or (`n_samples`, `n_outputs`), representing the ground truth (correct) target values.
Optional arguments:
- `sample_weight`: numeric array-like of shape (`n_samples,`) representing sample weights. The default is `None`.
- `multioutput`: `raw_values`, `uniform_average` or numeric array-like of shape (`n_outputs,`), which defines the aggregation of multiple output values. The default value is `uniform_average`.
- `raw_values` returns a full set of errors in case of multioutput input.
- `uniform_average` means that the errors of all outputs are averaged with uniform weight.
- the array-like value defines weights used to average errors.
### Output Values
This metric outputs a dictionary, containing the mean absolute error score, which is of type:
- `float`: if multioutput is `uniform_average` or an ndarray of weights, then the weighted average of all output errors is returned.
- numeric array-like of shape (`n_outputs,`): if multioutput is `raw_values`, then the score is returned for each output separately.
Each MAPE `float` value is postive with the best value being 0.0.
Output Example(s):
```python
{'mape': 0.5}
```
If `multioutput="raw_values"`:
```python
{'mape': array([0.5, 1. ])}
```
#### Values from Popular Papers
### Examples
Example with the `uniform_average` config:
```python
>>> mape_metric = evaluate.load("mape")
>>> predictions = [2.5, 0.0, 2, 8]
>>> references = [3, -0.5, 2, 7]
>>> results = mape_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references)
>>> print(results)
{'mape': 0.3273...}
```
Example with multi-dimensional lists, and the `raw_values` config:
```python
>>> mape_metric = evaluate.load("mape", "multilist")
>>> predictions = [[0.5, 1], [-1, 1], [7, -6]]
>>> references = [[0.1, 2], [-1, 2], [8, -5]]
>>> results = mape_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references)
>>> print(results)
{'mape': 0.8874...}
>>> results = mape_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references, multioutput='raw_values')
>>> print(results)
{'mape': array([1.3749..., 0.4])}
```
## Limitations and Bias
One limitation of MAPE is that it cannot be used if the ground truth is zero or close to zero. This metric is also asymmetric in that it puts a heavier penalty on predictions less than the ground truth and a smaller penalty on predictions bigger than the ground truth and thus can lead to a bias of methods being select which under-predict if selected via this metric.
