sklearn.metrics.r2_score¶

sklearn.metrics.r2_score(y_true, y_pred, *, sample_weight=None, multioutput='uniform_average', force_finite=True)[source]

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

Best possible score is 1.0 and it can be negative (because the model can be arbitrarily worse). In the general case when the true y is non-constant, a constant model that always predicts the average y disregarding the input features would get a $$R^2$$ score of 0.0.

In the particular case when y_true is constant, the $$R^2$$ score is not finite: it is either NaN (perfect predictions) or -Inf (imperfect predictions). To prevent such non-finite numbers to pollute higher-level experiments such as a grid search cross-validation, by default these cases are replaced with 1.0 (perfect predictions) or 0.0 (imperfect predictions) respectively. You can set force_finite to False to prevent this fix from happening.

Note: when the prediction residuals have zero mean, the $$R^2$$ score is identical to the Explained Variance score.

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.

multioutput{‘raw_values’, ‘uniform_average’, ‘variance_weighted’}, array-like of shape (n_outputs,) or None, default=’uniform_average’

Defines aggregating of multiple output scores. Array-like value defines weights used to average scores. Default is “uniform_average”.

‘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.

Changed in version 0.19: Default value of multioutput is ‘uniform_average’.

force_finitebool, default=True

Flag indicating if NaN and -Inf scores resulting from constant data should be replaced with real numbers (1.0 if prediction is perfect, 0.0 otherwise). Default is True, a convenient setting for hyperparameters’ search procedures (e.g. grid search cross-validation).

New in version 1.1.

Returns:
zfloat 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).

This metric is not well-defined for single samples and will return a NaN value if n_samples is less than two.
