This article delves into methods for evaluating the calibration of AI-generated forecasts, building on previous discussions about accuracy versus calibration. It introduces two key tools: empirical coverage, which checks if the actual outcomes fall within the model's stated confidence intervals, and Probability Integral Transform (PIT) histograms, which provide a more detailed view by analyzing the percentile position of the actual outcome within the predicted distribution. The author uses these tools to assess an AI forecasting model on Indian stock market indices, finding that while next-day forecasts showed good empirical coverage, further analysis with PIT histograms revealed more nuanced insights into the model's calibration.
