Tschuprow's T

Compute Tschuprow’s T statistic measuring the association between two categorical (nominal) data series.

where

where $n_{ij}$ denotes the number of times the values $(A_i, B_j)$ are observed with $A_i, B_j$ represent frequencies of values in preds and target, respectively. Tschuprow’s T is a symmetric coefficient, i.e. $T(preds, target) = T(target, preds)$, so order of input arguments does not matter. The output values lies in [0, 1] with 1 meaning the perfect association.

As input to forward and update the metric accepts the following input:

• preds (Tensor): Either 1D or 2D tensor of categorical (nominal) data from the first data series with shape (batch_size,) or (batch_size, num_classes), respectively.

• target (Tensor): Either 1D or 2D tensor of categorical (nominal) data from the second data series with shape (batch_size,) or (batch_size, num_classes), respectively.

As output of forward and compute the metric returns the following output:

• tschuprows_t (Tensor): Scalar tensor containing the Tschuprow’s T statistic.

Parameters:

• num_classes (int) – Integer specifying the number of classes

• bias_correction (bool) – Indication of whether to use bias correction.

• nan_strategy (Literal['replace', 'drop']) – Indication of whether to replace or drop NaN values

• nan_replace_value (Optional[float]) – Value to replace NaN``s when ``nan_strategy = 'replace'

• kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments, see Advanced metric settings for more info.

Raises:

• ValueError – If nan_strategy is not one of ‘replace’ and ‘drop’

• ValueError – If nan_strategy is equal to ‘replace’ and nan_replace_value is not an int or float

Example:

>>> from torch import randint
>>> from torchmetrics.nominal import TschuprowsT
>>> preds = randint(0, 4, (100,))
>>> target = (preds + torch.randn(100)).round().clamp(0, 4)
>>> tschuprows_t = TschuprowsT(num_classes=5)
>>> tschuprows_t(preds, target)
tensor(0.4930)

plot(val=None, ax=None)[source]

Plot a single or multiple values from the metric.

Parameters:

• val (Union[Tensor, Sequence[Tensor], None]) – Either a single result from calling metric.forward or metric.compute or a list of these results. If no value is provided, will automatically call metric.compute and plot that result.

• ax (Optional[Axes]) – An matplotlib axis object. If provided will add plot to that axis

Return type:

tuple[Figure, Union[Axes, ndarray]]

Returns:

Figure and Axes object

Raises:

ModuleNotFoundError – If matplotlib is not installed
