| SHAP Distributions: Per Feature | Displays, via a violin plot, the distribution of SHAP values and feature values to aid in the analysis of how feature values influence predictions. | Binary classification, regression | ✔ |
| Lift Chart | Depicts how well a model segments the target population and how capable it is of predicting the target. | All | ✔ |
| ROC Curve | Provides tools for exploring classification, performance, and statistics related to a model. | Binary classification | ✔ |
| Residuals | Provides scatter plots and a histogram for understanding model predictive performance and validity. | Regression | ✔ |
