The "experiment with changes" box should have a drop-down for categorical features (exactly like what it is for binary features)
The "model predictions if each value was changed" table should now also include these categorical variables. It will have rows that change the value from its current value to each other possible value.
For example:
Factor
Changed Value
New Prediction
Favorite color
Blue -> Red
10
Favorite color
Blue -> Green
11
Example
A categorical feature may look like:
Name: FAVORITE COLOR
Type: categorical
Description: Favorite color of child
Each categorical variable has a list of possible values - for any entity, the value for this feature must be one of these. For example:
red, green, blue
