This tutorial explains how to calculate r^2 from scikit-learn on a regression model from catboost.
During this tutorial you will build and evaluate a model to predict arrival delay for flights in and out of NYC in 2013.
Packages
This tutorial uses:
Open a new Jupyter notebook and import the following:
import statsmodels.api as sm
import pandas as pd
import numpy as np
from sklearn.metrics import r2_score
from sklearn.model_selection import train_test_split
from catboost import CatBoostRegressor, Pool
Reading the data
The data is from rdatasets imported using the Python package statsmodels.
df = sm.datasets.get_rdataset('flights', 'nycflights13').data
df.info()
RangeIndex: 336776 entries, 0 to 336775
Data columns (total 19 columns):

As this model will predict arrival delay, the Null values are caused by flights did were cancelled or diverted. These can be excluded from this analysis.
Convert the times from floats or ints to hour and minutes
df['arr_hour'] = df.arr_time.apply(lambda x: int(np.floor(x/100)))
df['arr_minute'] = df.arr_time.apply(lambda x: int(x - np.floor(x/100)*100))
df['sched_arr_hour'] = df.sched_arr_time.apply(lambda x: int(np.floor(x/100)))
df['sched_arr_minute'] = df.sched_arr_time.apply(lambda x: int(x - np.floor(x/100)*100))
df['sched_dep_hour'] = df.sched_dep_time.apply(lambda x: int(np.floor(x/100)))
df['sched_dep_minute'] = df.sched_dep_time.apply(lambda x: int(x - np.floor(x/100)*100))
df.rename(columns={'hour': 'dep_hour',
'minute': 'dep_minute'}, inplace=True)
Prepare data for modeling
Set up train-test split
target = 'arr_delay'
y = df[target]
X = df.drop(columns=[target, 'flight', 'tailnum', 'time_hour', 'year', 'dep_time', 'sched_dep_time', 'arr_time', 'sched_arr_time', 'dep_delay'])
X_train, X_test, y_train, y_test = train_test_split(X, y, test_size=.2, random_state=1066)
Fit the model
Build the regression model
categorical_features = X_train.select_dtypes(exclude=[np.number])
train_pool = Pool(X_train, y_train, categorical_features)
test_pool = Pool(X_test, y_test, categorical_features)
model = CatBoostRegressor(iterations=500, max_depth=5, learning_rate=0.05, random_seed=1066, logging_level='Silent')
model.fit(X_train, y_train, eval_set=test_pool, cat_features=categorical_features, use_best_model=True, early_stopping_rounds=10)
Using r2_score from scikit-learn, calculate the r^2.
r2 = r2_score(y_test, model.predict(X_test))
