Regression evaluation
The test_set and model objects that you have derived in the previous exercise are available in your environment.
It's useful to present the accuracy of predictions with one number. You can then easily compare several models and show the progress to your employer or future employer.
Root Mean Squared Error and Mean Absolute Error are widely used to evaluate the regression models. Recall that their formulas are:
\(RMSE = \sqrt{\frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n}(y_i - \hat{y}_i)^2}\)
\(MAE = \frac{1}{n} \sum_{i=1}^{n} |y_i - \hat{y}_i|\)
