Researchers have developed a new framework called Forecast-Error Distribution Entropy (FEDE) to assess predictive causality in time series data. This method quantifies how the entire distribution of forecast errors changes across different prediction horizons, offering a more nuanced view than traditional measures like Root Mean Square Error (RMSE). The FEDE framework was shown to be effective in identifying predictive information from auxiliary time series, even when the underlying nonlinear relationships are unknown and hidden from predictors. The study found that models like LightGBM could recover these hidden channels, while simpler models like Ridge struggled, demonstrating FEDE's robustness across various nonlinearities and noise levels.
