_DESCRIPTION = """\
Mean Absolute Error (MAE) is the mean of the magnitude of difference between the predicted and actual
values.
"""


_KWARGS_DESCRIPTION = """
Args:
    predictions: array-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)
        Estimated target values.
    references: array-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)
        Ground truth (correct) target values.
    sample_weight: array-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None
        Sample weights.
    multioutput: {"raw_values", "uniform_average"} or array-like of shape (n_outputs,), default="uniform_average"
        Defines aggregating of multiple output values. Array-like value defines weights used to average errors.

                 "raw_values" : Returns a full set of errors in case of multioutput input.

                 "uniform_average" : Errors of all outputs are averaged with uniform weight.

Returns:
    mae : mean absolute error.
        If multioutput is "raw_values", then mean absolute error is returned for each output separately. If multioutput is "uniform_average" or an ndarray of weights, then the weighted average of all output errors is returned.
        MAE output is non-negative floating point. The best value is 0.0.
Examples:

    >>> mae_metric = evaluate.load("mae")
    >>> predictions = [2.5, 0.0, 2, 8]
    >>> references = [3, -0.5, 2, 7]
    >>> results = mae_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references)
    >>> print(results)
    {'mae': 0.5}

    If you're using multi-dimensional lists, then set the config as follows :

    >>> mae_metric = evaluate.load("mae", "multilist")
    >>> predictions = [[0.5, 1], [-1, 1], [7, -6]]
    >>> references = [[0, 2], [-1, 2], [8, -5]]
    >>> results = mae_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references)
    >>> print(results)
    {'mae': 0.75}
    >>> results = mae_metric.compute(predictions=predictions, references=references, multioutput='raw_values')
    >>> print(results)
    {'mae': array([0.5, 1. ])}
