get method for ALEPlots objects

Retrieve specific plots from an ALEPlots object with the get() generic. Unlike the subset() method, which returns an ALEPlots object, this method returns a list of ggplot2::ggplot objects.

See the get() method for ALE objects for arguments and output structure not described here.

Value

A list of ggplot objects using the category and dimension conventions described for the ALE method. This differs from the subset() method, which returns an ALEPlots object.

Method usage

get(obj, x_cols = NULL, ..., exclude_cols = NULL, type = "ale", cats = NULL, simplify = TRUE, silent = FALSE)

Method arguments

• obj: ALEPlots object from which to retrieve ALE elements.

• type: character(1). What type of ALEPlots to retrieve: 'ale' for standard ALE plots or 'effect' for ALE effects plots. See cats argument for options for categorical plots.

• cats: character. The categories (one or more) of a categorical outcome variable to retrieve. To retrieve all categories as individual category plots, leave cats at the default NULL. For categorical plots that combine all categories, specify cats = ".all". (Don't forget the "." in ".all", which avoids naming conflicts with legitimate categories that might be named "all".) For such all-category plots, type must be set to "overlay" or "facet" for the specific desired type of categorical plot.
