Comparison of the regression methods for nested cross-validation (Δ). Shown are the maximal q2 in the inner loop (q2(max)-inner loop), the maximal q2 in the outer loop (q2(max)-outer loop) and the q2 of the outer loop predicted by the model with the maximal q2 in the inner loop (q2 (inner loop-max)-outer loop).
