Evaluating & Comparing Algorithms
Now that we've created a new model with GBTRegressor its time to compare it against our baseline of RandomForestRegressor. To do this we will compare the predictions of both models to the actual data and calculate RMSE and R^2.

- Import
RegressionEvaluatorfrompyspark.ml.evaluationso it is available for use later. - Initialize
RegressionEvaluatorby settinglabelColto our actual data,SALESCLOSEPRICEandpredictionColto our predicted data,Prediction_Price - To calculate our metrics, call
evaluateonevaluatorwith the prediction valuespredsand create a dictionary with keyevaluator.metricNameand value ofrmse, do the same for ther2metric.
