Fasiolo, Matteo Nedellec, Raphaƫl Goude, Yannig Wood, Simon N. Scalable visualisation methods for modern Generalized Additive Models <p>In the last two decades the growth of computational resources has made it possible to handle Generalized Additive Models (GAMs) that formerly were too costly for serious applications. However, the growth in model complexity has not been matched by improved visualisations for model development and results presentation. Motivated by an industrial application in electricity load forecasting, we identify the areas where the lack of modern visualisation tools for GAMs is particularly severe, and we address the shortcomings of existing methods by proposing a set of visual tools that a) are fast enough for interactive use, b) exploit the additive structure of GAMs, c) scale to large data sets and d) can be used in conjunction with a wide range of response distributions. The new visual methods proposed here are implemented by the mgcViz R package, available on the Comprehensive R Archive Network.</p> Generalized Additive Models;visualisation;electricity load forecasting;residuals checking;regression modelling;interactive model building 2019-06-12
