distributionnode Properties

The Distribution node shows the occurrence of symbolic (categorical) values, such as mortgage type or gender. Typically, you might use the Distribution node to show imbalances in the data, which you could then rectify using a Balance node before creating a model.

Example

node = stream.create("distribution", "My node")
# "Plot" tab
node.setPropertyValue("plot", "Flags")
node.setPropertyValue("x_field", "Age")
node.setPropertyValue("color_field", "Drug")
node.setPropertyValue("normalize", True)
node.setPropertyValue("sort_mode", "ByOccurence")
node.setPropertyValue("use_proportional_scale", True)
