Return the coefficient of determination R^2 of the prediction.
The coefficient R^2 is defined as (1 - u/v), where u is the residual sum of squares ((y_true - y_pred) ** 2).sum() and v is the total sum of squares ((y_true - y_true.mean()) ** 2).sum(). The best possible score is 1.0 and it can be negative (because the model can be arbitrarily worse). A constant model that always predicts the expected value of y, disregarding the input features, would get a R^2 score of 0.0.
Parameters ---------- X : array-like of shape (n_samples, n_features) Test samples. For some estimators this may be a precomputed kernel matrix or a list of generic objects instead, shape = (n_samples, n_samples_fitted), where n_samples_fitted is the number of samples used in the fitting for the estimator.
y : array-like of shape (n_samples,) or (n_samples, n_outputs) True values for X.
sample_weight : array-like of shape (n_samples,), default=None Sample weights.
Returns ------- score : float R^2 of self.predict(X) wrt. y.
Notes ----- The R2 score used when calling ``score`` on a regressor will use ``multioutput='uniform_average'`` from version 0.23 to keep consistent with :func:`~sklearn.metrics.r2_score`. This will influence the ``score`` method of all the multioutput regressors (except for :class:`~sklearn.multioutput.MultiOutputRegressor`). To specify the default value manually and avoid the warning, please either call :func:`~sklearn.metrics.r2_score` directly or make a custom scorer with :func:`~sklearn.metrics.make_scorer` (the built-in scorer ``'r2'`` uses ``multioutput='uniform_average'``).
