Plotting

The PumasUtilities package provides access to the plotting functions available for Pumas and NCA. The subset of functions available for NCA can also be accessed via the NCAUtilities package.

All the available plotting functions build upon the Makie plotting ecosystem and so are interoperable with any plots created using Makie. You can freely combine individual plots from Pumas-specific functions with those of Makie, or any other plotting functions that build upon it, such as AlgebraOfGraphics.

For in-depth documentation and examples of Makie please refer directly to the documentation for that package. We will cover the basics within this document, but do not aim to give it a thorough treatment since that is best left to the official documentation.

Publication-Quality and Interactivity

By default, the plots created by all the Pumas plotting functions, as well as any produced using Makie directly, will return a Figure object which will display in the "Plot Pane" of your editor if you are using Visual Studio Code while writing your code. The plots that are displayed are for the most part static images.

If you wish to incorporate some level of interactivity while you are performing your analysis you can use the interactive function to convert the Figure into an interactive plot that allows for zooming, panning, and hover details.

julia> figure = observations_vs_time(population) # This will open the plot pane with a static plot.

julia> interactive(figure) # This will open the plot pane with an interactive plot.

Note that the complexity of the plot layout will determine whether interactive is able to produce a suitable interactive version of your plot. The data contained within your plot will by replicated, but the layout may degrade due to the limitations of the plotting library used for displaying the interactive plots. If the result is not to your liking then try to reduce the complexity of the layout by removing subplot axes from your Figure passed to interactive.

Keywords

All the plotting functions discussed in the next sections accept keyword arguments that control the different aspects of their appearance. Do note that currently the underlying Makie library will not throw an error when keyword arguments are incorrectly spelled. Because of this please carefully inspect the spelling of your keyword arguments should any of them appear to not be taking effect within the resulting plot.

Every docstring for the available plotting functions, listed in the next sections, are also available to you from within your editor and REPL, via the ? mode. They all list the possible keyword arguments that can be passed to them.

Pagination

There are instances with the plotting functions discussed below where the resulting Figure object contains numerous sub-plots rather than just a single plot. This can make creation of these complex plots difficult when very little space is available for each sub-plot.

You have two options with these cases:

  • Firstly, you can use several of the keywords that some of the plotting functions provide to limit the number of sub-plots. For example, the observations can be used to limit which out of possibly may observations from a model are displayed in Figure. Check the docstring of the particular plotting function for details of the available keywords.

  • Secondly, all plotting functions provide a paginate keyword that can be set to paginate = true. The effect that this has is to programmatically split the sub-plots over multiple "pages", which are then returned as a Vector{Figure} rather than the default single Figure. The companion keywords that can be used with this in many of the plotting functions are limit, rows, and columns which set the maximum sub-plots per page, number of rows, and number of columns respectively.

Functions

We'll cover Pumas- and NCA-specific plotting functionality separately in the next two sections.

Pumas

Firstly, to make the plotting functions available we must import the modules.

using Pumas
using PumasUtilities

PumasUtilities automatically loads PumasPlots which is Pumas' main plotting package.

To create custom plots using Makie directly you should also import one of it's "backend" packages, such as CairoMakie, with:

using CairoMakie

The following plots are now available:

Note

The plots discussed in this section only support continuous data models. Support for discrete data models will be made available soon.

For the example plots below we will be using the following Pumas' analysis results:

  • categorical: Select which of the variables should be interpreted as categorical. Provide a vector of symbols corresponding to the names of the categorical variables. By default all variables are treated as continuous.

Since there are many subjects within the given data pkpain_nca we paginate the resulting plots such that the maximum number of subplots per page is limited to a reasonable number, 9 in a 3-by-3 grid for observations_vs_time plots. We can also adjust the appearance of the sub-plots by using the facet keyword to combine common axis labels into well-placed multi-axis labels. Notice that we display only figures[1] below while figures contains 14 separate Figure objects containing plots.

The same plot above can be generated using the subject_fits(population) where only the lambdaz fits are computed.

Customizing Plots

The provided plotting functions discussed in the previous sections provide numerous customization options in the form of keywords for controlling visual aspects such as line colors and styles, titles, and axis labels. What these keywords do not control is the layout of a Figure in a "global" sense, since they are concerned with the customization of the axis that the plot is contained within.

To create more complex layouts of plots that incorporates the plots discussed above we can make use of Figure objects directly and in particular GridPositions that control where to place individual sub-plots. For a complete treatment of Makie's layout capabilities please refer directly to its documentation since we will only cover the basics here.

In the following example we will create a Figure that contains two different plots as sub-plots. Firstly, we must create a Figure object directly. Ensure that you have called using CairoMakie to import the Figure into your current namespace so that you can use it.

figure = Figure(; fontsize = 12);

Note that Figure takes all the same arguments that you can provide to the figure keyword when creating plots using the previously discussed plotting functions above.

Next we need to select the position within the figure that we would like to place each of our subplots. To do this Figures make use of array-indexing syntax, i.e. [].

observations_vs_time(figure[1, 1], model, pop; observations = :DV)
observations_vs_ipredictions(figure[1, 2], fitted_model_inspection; observations = :DV)
figure
Example block output

Above we have placed an observations_vs_time plot at row 1 and column 1 and then placed an observations_vs_ipredictions plot at row 1 and column 2, i.e. side-by-side.
