R package to compute and plot predictions, slopes, marginal means, and comparisons (contrasts, risk ratios, odds, etc.) for over 100 classes of statistical and ML models. Conduct linear and non-linear hypothesis tests, or equivalence tests. Calculate uncertainty estimates using the delta method, bootstrapping, or simulation-based inference
But maybe {data.table} or whatever {marginaleffects} is using behind the scenes doesn't do that? (or is philosophically opposed to doing that?; idk anything about {data.table}). Factors (and especially ordered factors) are weird and unwieldy.
When using
plot_predictions()
with a model with an ordered factor outcome variable, the ordering is lost when plotting.Here's a reprex:
These are in the right order because {marginaleffects} makes them that way internally, but the column is just a character, so the order is fragile:
The
group
facets are in alphabetic order here:We can re-specify the levels and order for
group
manually:{dplyr} and {tibble} maintain the column class when grouping/summarizing/etc:
But maybe {data.table} or whatever {marginaleffects} is using behind the scenes doesn't do that? (or is philosophically opposed to doing that?; idk anything about {data.table}). Factors (and especially ordered factors) are weird and unwieldy.
