AdaBoostRegressor

Ada Boost regression.

Parent type: Regressor

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
learner	Regressor	The learner from which the boosted ensemble is built.	DecisionTreeRegressor()
maxLearnerCount	Int	The maximum number of learners at which boosting is terminated. In case of perfect fit, the learning procedure is stopped early. Has to be greater than 0.	50
learningRate	Float	Weight applied to each regressor at each boosting iteration. A higher learning rate increases the contribution of each regressor. Has to be greater than 0.	1.0

Examples:

pipeline example {
    val training = Table.fromCsvFile("training.csv").toTabularDataset("target");
    val test = Table.fromCsvFile("test.csv").toTabularDataset("target");
    val regressor = AdaBoostRegressor(maxLearnerCount = 100).fit(training);
    val meanSquaredError = regressor.meanSquaredError(test);
}

isFitted

Whether the model is fitted.

Type: Boolean

learner

The base learner used for training the ensemble.

Type: Regressor

learningRate

The learning rate.

Type: Float

maxLearnerCount

The maximum number of learners in the ensemble.

Type: Int

coefficientOfDetermination

Compute the coefficient of determination (R²) of the regressor on the given data.

The coefficient of determination compares the regressor's predictions to another model that always predicts the mean of the target values. It is a measure of how well the regressor explains the variance in the target values.

The higher the coefficient of determination, the better the regressor. Results range from negative infinity to 1.0. You can interpret the coefficient of determination as follows:

R²	Interpretation
1.0	The model perfectly predicts the target values. Did you overfit?
(0.0, 1.0)	The model is better than predicting the mean of the target values. You should be here.
0.0	The model is as good as predicting the mean of the target values. Try something else.
(-∞, 0.0)	The model is worse than predicting the mean of the target values. Something is very wrong.

Notes:

• The model must be fitted.
• Some other libraries call this metric r2_score.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
validationOrTestSet	union<Table, TabularDataset>	The validation or test set.	-

Results:

Name	Type	Description
coefficientOfDetermination	Float	The coefficient of determination of the regressor.

meanAbsoluteError

Compute the mean absolute error (MAE) of the regressor on the given data.

The mean absolute error is the average of the absolute differences between the predicted and expected target values. The lower the mean absolute error, the better the regressor. Results range from 0.0 to positive infinity.

Note: The model must be fitted.

Parameters:

Name	Type	Description	Default
validationOrTestSet	union<Table, TabularDataset>	The validation or test set.	-

Results:

Name	Type	Description
meanAbsoluteError	Float	The mean absolute error of the regressor.

fun meanAbsoluteError(
    @PythonName("validation_or_test_set") validationOrTestSet: union<Table, TabularDataset>
) -> meanAbsoluteError: Float

meanDirectionalAccuracy

Compute the mean directional accuracy (MDA) of the regressor on the given data.

This metric compares two consecutive target values and checks if the predicted direction (down/unchanged/up) matches the expected direction. The mean directional accuracy is the proportion of correctly predicted directions. The higher the mean directional accuracy, the better the regressor. Results range from 0.0 to 1.0.

This metric is useful for time series data, where the order of the target values has a meaning. It is not useful for other types of data. Because of this, it is not included in the summarize_metrics method.

Note: The model must be fitted.

Name	Type	Description	Default
validationOrTestSet	union<Table, TabularDataset>	The validation or test set.	-

Results:

Name	Type	Description

meanSquaredError

Compute the mean squared error (MSE) of the regressor on the given data.

The mean squared error is the average of the squared differences between the predicted and expected target values. The lower the mean squared error, the better the regressor. Results range from 0.0 to positive infinity.

Notes:

• The model must be fitted.
• To get the root mean squared error (RMSE), take the square root of the result.
