| lgb.plot.importance {lightgbm} | R Documentation |
Plot previously calculated feature importance: Gain, Cover and Frequency, as a bar graph.
lgb.plot.importance(tree_imp, top_n = 10, measure = "Gain", left_margin = 10, cex = NULL)
tree_imp |
a |
top_n |
maximal number of top features to include into the plot. |
measure |
the name of importance measure to plot, can be "Gain", "Cover" or "Frequency". |
left_margin |
(base R barplot) allows to adjust the left margin size to fit feature names. |
cex |
(base R barplot) passed as |
The graph represents each feature as a horizontal bar of length proportional to the defined importance of a feature. Features are shown ranked in a decreasing importance order.
The lgb.plot.importance function creates a barplot
and silently returns a processed data.table with top_n features sorted by defined importance.
