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?
