sklearn.metrics.mean_pinball_loss

sklearn.metrics.mean_pinball_loss(y_true, y_pred, *, sample_weight=None, alpha=0.5, multioutput='uniform_average')[source]

Pinball loss for quantile regression.

Read more in the User Guide.

Parameters:
y_truearray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

Ground truth (correct) target values.

y_predarray-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs)

Estimated target values.

sample_weightarray-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None

Sample weights.

alpha: float, slope of the pinball loss, default=0.5,

this loss is equivalent to Mean absolute error when alpha=0.5, alpha=0.95 is minimized by estimators of the 95th percentile.

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:
lossfloat or ndarray of floats

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.

The pinball loss output is a non-negative floating point. The best value is 0.0.

>>> mean_pinball_loss(y_true, y_true, alpha=0.1)
