For this, they first study a forecast accuracy-related forecast uncertainty metric using the ensemble method based on the dropout technique, which is widely used in deep learning forecasting models. Given the forecast accuracy-related uncertainty metric, the rationale of the authors' approach is that forecast accuracy is likely to decrease compared to the normal case of similar uncertainty metric values if any performance degradation happens. It is because similar uncertainty metric values are likely to show similar forecast accuracy. Therefore, they generate a standard table by simulating possible performance degradation cases and conduct the performance degradation diagnosis by looking up the standard table based on the uncertainty metric. From the experiments, in the case of persistent degradation, they show that their approach estimates the performance degradation with the estimation error of around 1% while an uncertainty-unaware approach shows the estimation error of up to 5%. In the case of temporal degradation, their approach shows the estimation error of around 3%, while the uncertainty-unaware approach does not show meaningful result. 收起
