ciu.ggplot.col {ciu}

CIU feature importance/utility plot using ggplot.

Description

Create a barplot showing CI as the length of the bar and CU on color scale from red to green, via yellow, for the given inputs and the given output.

Usage

ciu.ggplot.col(
  ciu,
  instance = NULL,
  ind.inputs = NULL,
  output.names = NULL,
  in.min.max.limits = NULL,
  n.samples = 100,
  neutral.CU = 0.5,
  show.input.values = TRUE,
  concepts.to.explain = NULL,
  target.concept = NULL,
  target.ciu = NULL,
  ciu.meta = NULL,
  plot.mode = "colour_cu",
  ci.colours = c("aquamarine", "aquamarine3", "0.3"),
  cu.colours = c("darkgreen", "darkgreen", "0.8"),
  low.color = "red",
  mid.color = "yellow",
  high.color = "darkgreen",
  use.influence = FALSE,
  sort = NULL,
  decreasing = FALSE,
  main = NULL
)

Arguments

ciu

ciu object as created with ciu function (not to be confused with CIU object as created by ciu.new).

instance

Input values for the instance to explain. Should be a data.frame even though a vector or matrix might work too if input names and other needed metadata can be deduced from the dataset or other parameters given to ciu.new.

ind.inputs

Indices of input features to explain (the set i in CIU formulae)

output.names

Vector with names of outputs to include. If NULL (default), then include all.

in.min.max.limits

data.frame or matrix with one row per output and two columns, where the first column indicates the minimal value and the second column the maximal value for that output. ONLY NEEDED HERE IF not given as parameter to ciu.new or if the limits are different for this specific instance than the default ones.

n.samples

How many instances to generate for estimating CI and CU. For inputs of type factor, all possible combinations of input values are generated, so this parameter only influences how many instances are (at least) generated for continuous-valued inputs.

neutral.CU

Indicates when the Contextual Utility is considered to be "negative". The default value of 0.5 seems quite logical for most cases.

show.input.values

Include input values after input labels or not. Default is TRUE.

concepts.to.explain

List of input feature concepts to explain, as defined by vocabulary provided as argument to ciu.new. If ind.inputs=NULL, then use concepts.to.explain instead. If both are NULL, then use all inputs.

target.concept

If provided, then calculate CIU of inputs ind.inputs.to.explain relative to the given concept rather than relative to the actual output(s). ind.inputs.to.explain should normally be a subset (or all) of the inputs that target.concept consists of, even though that not required by the CIU calculation. If a target.ciu is provided, then the target.concept doesn't have to be included in the vocabulary gives as parameter to ciu.new (at least for the moment).

target.ciu

ciu.result object previously calculated for target.concept. If a target.concept is provided but target.ciu=NULL, then target.ciu is estimated by a call to ciu.explain with the n.samples value given as a parameter to this call. It may be useful to provide target.ciu if it should be estimated using some other (typically greater) value for n.samples than the default one, or if it has already been calculated for some reason.

ciu.meta

If given, then use existing ciu.meta.result rather than calling ciu.meta.explain.

plot.mode

"overlap" or "colour_cu". Default is "colour_cu".

ci.colours

Colours to use for CI part in "overlap" mode. Three values required: fill colour, border colour, alpha. Default is c("aquamarine", "aquamarine3", "0.3").

cu.colours

Colours to use for CU part in "overlap" mode. Three values required: fill colour, border colour, alpha. Default is c("darkgreen", "darkgreen", "0.8"). If it is set to NULL, then the same colour palette is used as for "colour_cu".

low.color

Colour to use for CU=0

mid.color

Colour to use for CU=Neutral.CU

high.color

Colour to use for CU=1

use.influence

Plot using "influence" rather than CIU, i.e. a LIME-like barplot. Default is FALSE.

sort

NULL, "CI" or "CU".

decreasing

Set to TRUE for decreasing sort.

main

Text to use as main title.

Value

ggplot object.
