In easyalluvial: Generate Alluvial Plots with a Single Line of Code

create model response plot for caret models

Description

Wraps alluvial_model_response and get_data_space into one call for caret models.

Usage

alluvial_model_response_caret(
  train,
  data_input,
  degree = 4,
  bins = 5,
  bin_labels = c("LL", "ML", "M", "MH", "HH"),
  col_vector_flow = c("#FF0065", "#009850", "#A56F2B", "#005EAA", "#710500", "#7B5380",
    "#9DD1D1"),
  method = "median",
  parallel = FALSE,
  params_bin_numeric_pred = list(bins = 5),
  pred_train = NULL,
  stratum_label_size = 3.5,
  force = F,
  resp_var = NULL,
  ...
)

Arguments

train	caret train object
data_input	dataframe, input data
degree	integer, number of top important variables to select. For plotting more than 4 will result in two many flows and the alluvial plot will not be very readable, Default: 4
bins	integer, number of bins for numeric variables, increasing this number might result in too many flows, Default: 5
bin_labels	labels for the bins from low to high, Default: c("LL", "ML", "M", "MH", "HH")
col_vector_flow	character vector, defines flow colours, Default: c('#FF0065','#009850', '#A56F2B', '#005EAA', '#710500')
method	character vector, one of c('median', 'pdp') median sets variables that are not displayed to median mode, use with regular predictions pdp partial dependency plot method, for each observation in the training data the displayed variables are set to the indicated values. The predict function is called for each modified observation and the result is averaged . Default: 'median'
parallel	logical, turn on parallel processing for pdp method. Default: FALSE
params_bin_numeric_pred	list, additional parameters passed to manip_bin_numerics which is applied to the pred parameter. Default: list(bins = 5, center = T, transform = T, scale = T)
pred_train	numeric vector, base the automated binning of the pred vector on the distribution of the training predictions. This is useful if marginal histograms are added to the plot later. Default = NULL
stratum_label_size	numeric, Default: 3.5
force	logical, force plotting of over 1500 flows, Default: FALSE
resp_var	character, sometimes target variable cannot be inferred and needs to be passed. Default NULL
...	additional parameters passed to alluvial_wide

Details

this model visualisation approach follows the "visualising the model in the dataspace" principle as described in Wickham H, Cook D, Hofmann H (2015) Visualizing statistical models: Removing the blindfold. Statistical Analysis and Data Mining 8(4) <doi:10.1002/sam.11271>

Value

ggplot2 object

Parallel Processing

We are using 'furrr' and the 'future' package to paralelize some of the computational steps for calculating the predictions. It is up to the user to register a compatible backend (see plan).

Examples

if(check_pkg_installed("caret", raise_error = FALSE)) {
  df = mtcars2[, ! names(mtcars2) %in% 'ids' ]

  train = caret::train( disp ~ .,
                        df,
                        method = 'rf',
                        trControl = caret::trainControl( method = 'none' ),
                        importance = TRUE )

  alluvial_model_response_caret(train, df, degree = 3)
}
# partial dependency plotting method
## Not run: 
future::plan("multisession")
alluvial_model_response_caret(train, df, degree = 3, method = 'pdp', parallel = TRUE)
 
## End(Not run)
