General comments:
- The distance functions (mean_*_error) all have the same structure except
the distance metric. I suggest refactoring the table creation and the grouping
statements into a single function that takes a parameter for the distance.
- Avoid using `__` within python. It leads to [name
mangling](https://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/classes.html#private-variables-and-class-local-references),
that doesn't really help in this situation.
- There seems to be considerable overlap between the grouping and
non-grouping SQL in `r2`, `adjusted_r2` and `auc` functions. Maybe we can
combine them?
- I'll bump the
[suggestion](https://github.com/apache/incubator-madlib/pull/41#issuecomment-216661096)
by @decibel in the previous PR. It might be helpful to have 2 versions: 1 that
creates the output table and the other returns the rows directly.
