sklearn.metrics.r2_score

sklearn.metrics.r2_score(y_true, y_pred, sample_weight=None, multioutput=None)[source]

R^2 (coefficient of determination) regression score function.

Best possible score is 1.0, lower values are worse.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:

y_true : array-like of shape = (n_samples) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

Ground truth (correct) target values.

y_pred : array-like of shape = (n_samples) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

Estimated target values.

sample_weight : array-like of shape = (n_samples), optional

Sample weights.

multioutput : string in [‘raw_values’, ‘uniform_average’,

‘variance_weighted’] or None or array-like of shape (n_outputs)

Defines aggregating of multiple output scores. Array-like value defines weights used to average scores. Default value correponds to ‘variance_weighted’, but will be changed to ‘uniform_average’ in next versions.

‘raw_values’ :

Returns a full set of scores in case of multioutput input.

‘uniform_average’ :

Scores of all outputs are averaged with uniform weight.

‘variance_weighted’ :

Scores of all outputs are averaged, weighted by the variances of each individual output.

Returns:

z : float or ndarray of floats

The R^2 score or ndarray of scores if ‘multioutput’ is ‘raw_values’.

Notes

This is not a symmetric function.

Unlike most other scores, R^2 score may be negative (it need not actually be the square of a quantity R).

Examples

>>> from sklearn.metrics import r2_score
>>> y_true = [3, -0.5, 2, 7]
>>> y_pred = [2.5, 0.0, 2, 8]
>>> r2_score(y_true, y_pred)  
0.948...
>>> y_true = [[0.5, 1], [-1, 1], [7, -6]]
>>> y_pred = [[0, 2], [-1, 2], [8, -5]]
>>> r2_score(y_true, y_pred, multioutput='variance_weighted')  
0.938...
