The Granularity Paradox: How Temporal Disaggregation Inflates In-Sample Fit and Compounds Out-of-Sample Error

View original on arxiv.org

Overview

arXiv:2607.05450v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper explores the "Granularity Paradox" in time-series forecasting, wherein finer temporal disaggregation (e.g., Monthly to Weekly/Daily) improves in-sample diagnostics and dataset size (N), but degrades out-of-sample accuracy due to recursive error compounding over longer horizons (H). Conversely, coarse aggregation (Annual) eliminates recursive error propagation but reduces data available to estimators. We formalize this trade-off and bench
