New metric quantifies predictive gain from historical data

Researchers have introduced a new metric called Memory Prediction Excess (MPE) to quantify how much past information improves the prediction accuracy of stochastic processes. The MPE measures the average gain in prediction accuracy by using the entire observed history compared to just the static marginal distribution. A normalized version of MPE provides a dimensionless measure of predictive efficiency, and a framework is extended to finite-history MPE (FH-MPE) to determine the minimal memory length needed for a given predictive performance.
