The proposed novel evaluation method for Marked Temporal Point Processes (MTPP) models is a temporal variant of mean Average Precision (mAP), called T-mAP. This approach addresses limitations of existing long-horizon evaluation metrics, such as inaccurate handling of false positives and false negatives. The study demonstrates that strong next-event prediction accuracy does not necessarily translate to good long-horizon forecasts, highlighting the need for specialized methods for each task. A benchmark, HoTPP, is released with large-scale datasets and optimized procedures for autoregressive and parallel inference.

This paper helps us understand how to better predict when multiple events will happen in the future. Currently, we’re only looking at predicting the next event, but this isn’t always accurate. The researchers propose a new way to measure how well our predictions are doing by counting true positives, false positives, and false negatives over time. They also release a large dataset for other scientists to use to improve their own predictions.
