Performances are reported in terms of the determination coefficient R2, Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and Mean Squared Error (MSE, see text for more details on these metrics). The in-sample performances quantify the fitness of the predictive models on the training data, while the out-of-sample values estimate the expected performance on new data. Confidence intervals are calculated using a bootstrap approach
