As of the R2024b release, MATLAB does not include a function for calculating the Predictive Power Score (PPS). However, you can utilize the MATLAB Engine API for Python to call the ppscore library from Python. Below is an example code:
% Sample data as a MATLAB table
data = table([1; 2; 3; 4; 5], [10; 20; 30; 40; 50], [0; 1; 0; 1; 0], ...
'VariableNames', {'Feature1', 'Feature2', 'Target'});
% Convert MATLAB table to Python DataFrame
pyDataFrame = py.pandas.DataFrame(data);
% Import the ppscore library
ppscore = py.importlib.import_module('ppscore');
% Calculate the PPS for a specific feature and target
pps_score = ppscore.score(pyDataFrame, 'Feature1', 'Target');
Note that for implementing this you need to ensure that you have Python installed on your system with the ppscore and pandas libraries available.
