plotPermutationResults

Plot histogram of permutation results for a variable specified for data drift detection

Since R2022a

    Description

    example

    plotPermutationResults(DDiagnostics) plots the histogram of metric values computed by the driftdetect function during permutation testing for the variable with the lowest p-value.

    If you set the value of EstimatePValues to false in the call to detectdrift, then plotPermutationResults does not generate a plot and, instead, returns a warning.

    example

    plotPermutationResults(DDiagnostics,Variable=variable) plots the histogram for the variable specified by variable.

    example

    plotPermutationResults(ax,___) plots on the axes ax instead of gca using any of the previous input argument combinations in the previous syntaxes.

    H = plotPermutationResults(___) plots the histogram and returns an array of Histogram objects H for the metric values computed during permutation testing. Use H to inspect and modify the properties of the histogram. For more information, see Histogram Properties.

    example

    [H,CL] = plotPermutationResults(___) additionally returns a ConstantLine object CL for the metric threshold value. Use CL to inspect and modify the properties of the line. For more information, see ConstantLine Properties.

    Examples

    Generate baseline and target data with three variables, where the distribution parameters of the second and third variables change for the target data.

    rng('default') % For reproducibility
    baseline = [normrnd(0,1,100,1),wblrnd(1.1,1,100,1),betarnd(1,2,100,1)];
    target = [normrnd(0,1,100,1),wblrnd(1.2,2,100,1),betarnd(1.7,2.8,100,1)];

    Perform permutation testing for all variables to check for any drift between the baseline and target data.

    Plot the permutation results for the default variable.

    plotPermutationResults(DDiagnostics)

    By default, plotPermutationResults plots a histogram of the metric values computed in permutation testing for the variable with the lowest p-value, which is x2 in this case. The function includes the metric threshold value (the initial metric value computed by detectdrift using the baseline and target data) on the histogram, so you can see the values that are greater than or equal to the threshold. plotPermutationResults also displays the p-value and the drift status for the variable, and the metric that you specify to use for permutation testing in the call to detectdrift. In this example, no metric is specified, so detectdrift uses the default metric (Wasserstein) for continuous variables.

    Generate baseline and target data with three variables, where the distribution parameters of the second and third variables change for the target data.

    rng('default') % For reproducibility
    baseline = [normrnd(0,1,100,1),wblrnd(1.1,1,100,1),betarnd(1,2,100,1)];
    target = [normrnd(0,1,100,1),wblrnd(1.2,2,100,1),betarnd(1.7,2.8,100,1)];

    Perform permutation testing for all variables to check for any drift between the baseline and target data. Use the Energy metric for all variables.
