Hi everyone,

Thanks a lot for the explanation…
 
I tried the following code to compute R2 for a regression system but it does 
not work:
 
my_svm_model <- function(myformula, mydata, mytestdata) 
{
mymodel <- svm(myformula, data=mydata) 
k<- summary(mymodel)
k$r.squared
}
 
Can anyone please tell me what I have to change to compute R2?
Many thanks,
Nancy
