+
+In [sklearn](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/sklearn), **Multioutput Regression** is a type of regression task where the model predicts multiple dependent variables (outputs) simultaneously for each input, allowing for the modeling of relationships between multiple target variables and the features, which can improve prediction accuracy when outputs are correlated.
+
+This can be achieved using the `MultiOutputRegressor` class, which wraps a single-output regressor (like [`LinearRegression`](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/sklearn/linear-regression-analysis) or [`DecisionTreeRegressor`](https://www.codecademy.com/resources/docs/sklearn/decision-trees)) and fits a separate model for each target variable. The model then predicts all outputs at once for each input, treating each target independently.
+
+## Syntax
+
+```pseudo
+from sklearn.multioutput import MultiOutputRegressor
+
+multi_output_regressor = MultiOutputRegressor(estimator, n_jobs=None)
+```
+
+- `estimator`: The base regressor that is used to fit each target independently. This can be any regression model that supports single-output regression (e.g., `LinearRegression`, `DecisionTreeRegressor`, etc.).
+- `n_jobs`: The number of jobs to run in parallel for fitting the models.
+  - If `None`, it defaults to 1 (single-threaded).
+  - If `-1`, it uses all available processors.
+  - If `int > 1`, it uses that many processors for parallel computation.
+
+## Example
+
+In the following example, a multi-output regression model is trained using `MultiOutputRegressor` with `LinearRegression` as the base `estimator` to predict two target variables from a dataset with 100 samples and 10 features:
+
+```py
+from sklearn.datasets import make_regression
+from sklearn.linear_model import LinearRegression
+from sklearn.multioutput import MultiOutputRegressor
+
+# Generate a dataset with multiple targets
+X, y = make_regression(n_samples=100, n_features=10, n_targets=2, random_state=42)
+
+# Create the base regressor
+base_regressor = LinearRegression()
+
+# Initialize MultiOutputRegressor with the base regressor
+multi_output_regressor = MultiOutputRegressor(base_regressor)
+
+# Fit the model
+multi_output_regressor.fit(X, y)
+
+# Make predictions
+predictions = multi_output_regressor.predict(X)
+print(predictions)
+```
+
+The code above generates output as follows:
