ChainsMakie

A package to plot MCMC Chains using Makie.jl

Warning

This package is not yet registered and still work in progress. If you want to try it you will have to install it via Pkg.add(url="https://github.com/simonsteiger/ChainsMakie.jl").

Example

ChainsMakie provides several plotting functions to visually diagnose MCMC Chains. The plot function provides the standard visualisation showing a traceplot and a density plot for each parameter.

using ChainsMakie, CairoMakie
import MCMCChains: Chains

chains = Chains(randn(300, 3, 4), [:A, :B, :C])

julia_quartet = [colorant"#4e63ae", colorant"#208921", colorant"#cc3333", colorant"#b352cc"]
plot(chains; color = julia_quartet, link_x = true)

Features

ChainsMakie contains recipes for the following Chains-specific plotting functions:

• autocorplot
• forestplot
• meanplot
• ridgeline
• traceplot
• trankplot

In addition, it extends the following existing Makie functions by adding a method for Chains:

• density
• hist
• plot
• violin
