Beschreibung:
We develop metrics based on Shapley values for interpreting time-series forecasting models, including "black-box" models from machine learning. Our metrics are model agnostic, so that they are applicable to any model (linear or nonlinear, parametric or nonparametric). Two of the metrics, iShapley-VI and oShapley-VI, measure the importance of individual predictors in fitted models for explaining the in-sample and out-of-sample predicted target values, respectively. The third metric is the performance-based Shapley value (PBSV), our main methodological contribution. PBSV measures the contributions of individual predictors in fitted models to the out-of-sample loss and thereby anatomizes out-of-sample forecasting accuracy. In an empirical application forecasting US inflation, we find important discrepancies between individual predictor relevance according to the in-sample iShapley-VI and out-ofsample PBSV. We use simulations to analyze potential sources of the discrepancies, including overfitting, structural breaks, and evolving predictor volatilities.
