When to use SVR over other regression models












0












$begingroup$


I am confused about when to use Support Vector Regression over other models like Random Forest Regression and XGBoost. I expected XGBoost to give the best prediction score(r2_score) for my regression problem. But I get a better accuracy using Support Vector Regression. Is there any specific kind of data on which SVR might outperform other regresssion techniques?
