Syntax

plotfit(net,inputs,targets)
plotfit(net,inputs1,targets1,name1,inputs2,targets2,name2,...)
plotfit(...,'outputIndex',outputIndex)

Description

plotfit(net,inputs,targets) plots the output function of a network across the range of the inputs inputs and also plots target targets and output data points associated with values in inputs. Error bars show the difference between outputs and targets.

The plot appears only for networks with one input.

Only the first output/targets appear if the network has more than one output.

example

plotfit(net,inputs1,targets1,name1,inputs2,targets2,name2,...) plots multiple sets of data.

plotfit(...,'outputIndex',outputIndex) plots using an optional parameter that overrides the default index of the output element.

This example shows how to use a feed-forward network to solve a simple fitting problem.

[x,t] = simplefit_dataset;
net = feedforwardnet(10);
net = train(net,x,t);

Figure Neural Network Training (05-Sep-2024 18:39:50) contains an object of type uigridlayout.

plotfit(net,x,t)

Figure Fit (plotfit) contains 2 axes objects. Axes object 1 with title Function Fit for Output Element 1, ylabel Output and Target contains 4 objects of type line. One or more of the lines displays its values using only markers These objects represent Errors, Fit, Targets, Outputs. Axes object 2 with xlabel Input, ylabel Error contains 3 objects of type line. One or more of the lines displays its values using only markers This object represents Targets - Outputs.

Input Arguments
