Hi Zach. If this is related to your previous problems, let me just answer 1: the values depend on what error score is used. If your problem is a regression problem, the standard score is r2, which can become negative. That the CV values vary so much is really a bit odd. Could you post a gist with

Changing the cv parameter (number of iterations) in cross_val_score() really changes the returned scores. Increasing the CV doesn't neccessarily mean that the returned scores stabalise. Instead, they get worse, and only get better later. I have included the output of increasing the CV below. M
