Hindcasts and forecasts of suicide mortality in US: A modeling study
Fig 3
Quantile scores of forecasts from augmented models relative to baseline model (left) and relative to auto model (right), by state. The relative quantile score (RQS), has a range of -100 to 100, a negative value indicating a better forecast than the reference and a positive value indicating a worse forecast. The color lightness (light to dark) represents the magnitude of difference from reference, with a darker shade implying greater improvement.
