ploterrhist(e1,'name1',e2,'name2',...) takes any number of errors and names and plots each pair.

ploterrhist(...,'bins',bins) takes an optional property name-value pair which defines the number of bins to use in the histogram plot. The default is 20.

Examples

This example shows how to plot the histogram of error values of a trained feed-forward network.

Create a feed-forward network and train it using the data from the simple fit data set. Then plot the histogram of error values.

[x,t] = simplefit_dataset;
net = feedforwardnet(20);
net = train(net,x,t);
y = net(x);
e = t - y;
ploterrhist(e,'bins',30)

Histogram of error values. The errors are clustered around zero in a roughly Gaussian distribution.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Errors to plot, specified as a vector or a matrix.

Number of bins to use in the histogram plot, specified as the comma-separated pair consisting of 'bins' and an integer.
