[FIXED] Performing voting for classification tasks

Issue

I am wondering is it possible to do voting for classification tasks. I have seen plenty of blogs explaining how to use voting for regression purposes.As given below.

# initializing all the model objects with default parameters
model_1 = LinearRegression()
model_2 = xgb.XGBRegressor()
model_3 = RandomForestRegressor()
 
# training all the model on the training dataset
model_1.fit(X_train, y_target)
model_2.fit(X_train, y_target)
model_3.fit(X_train, y_target)
 
# predicting the output on the validation dataset
pred_1 = model_1.predict(X_test)
pred_2 = model_2.predict(X_test)
pred_3 = model_3.predict(X_test)
 
# final prediction after averaging on the prediction of all 3 models
pred_final = (pred_1+pred_2+pred_3)/3.0
 
# printing the mean squared error between real value and predicted value
print(mean_squared_error(y_test, pred_final))

Solution

That can be done.

# initializing all the model objects with default parameters

model_1= svm.SVC(kernel='rbf')
model_2 = XGBClassifier()
model_3 = RandomForestClassifier()
 
# Making the final model using voting classifier
final_model = VotingClassifier(estimators=[('svc', model_1), ('xgb', model_2), ('rf', model_3)], voting='hard')

# applying 10 fold cross validation
scores = cross_val_score(final_model, X_all, y, cv=10, scoring='accuracy')
print(scores) 
print('Model accuracy score : {0:0.4f}'.format(scores.mean()))

You can add more machine learning models than three if necessary Here note that I have applied cross validation and got the accuracy
