plot_fit_trajectory: Plot the trajectory of a model fit.

Description

Plot a history of model fit performance over the a trajectory of times.

Usage

plot_fit_trajectory(
  d,
  column_description,
  title,
  ...,
  epoch_name = "epoch",
  needs_flip = c(),
  pick_metric = NULL,
  discount_rate = NULL,
  draw_ribbon = FALSE,
  draw_segments = FALSE,
  val_color = "#d95f02",
  train_color = "#1b9e77",
  pick_color = "#e6ab02"
)

Value

ggplot2 plot

Arguments

d: data frame to get values from.
column_description: description of column measures (data.frame with columns measure, validation, and training).
title: character title for plot.
...: force later arguments to be bound by name
epoch_name: name for epoch or trajectory column.
needs_flip: character array of measures that need to be flipped.
pick_metric: character metric to maximize.
discount_rate: numeric what fraction of over-fit to subtract from validation performance.
draw_ribbon: present the difference in training and validation performance as a ribbon rather than two curves? (default FALSE)
draw_segments: logical if TRUE draw over-fit/under-fit segments.
val_color: color for validation performance curve
train_color: color for training performance curve
pick_color: color for indicating optimal stopping point

Details

This visualization can be applied to any staged machine learning algorithm. For example one could plot the performance of a gradient boosting machine as a function of the number of trees added. The fit history data should be in the form given in the example below.

The example below gives a fit plot for a history report from Keras R package. Please see https://win-vector.com/2017/12/23/plotting-deep-learning-model-performance-trajectories/ for some examples and details.
