Plot individual and voting regression predictions¶
Plot individual and averaged regression predictions for Boston dataset.
First, three exemplary regressors are initialized
(GradientBoostingRegressor
,
RandomForestRegressor
, and
LinearRegression
) and used to initialize a
VotingRegressor
.
The red starred dots are the averaged predictions.
