distributionnode properties

Last updated: Feb 11, 2025

Distribution node icon The Distribution node shows the occurrence of symbolic (categorical) values, such as mortgage type or gender. Typically, you might use the Distribution node to show imbalances in the data, which you could then rectify using a Balance node before creating a model.

Example

stream = modeler.script.stream()
typenode = stream.findByID("id42KW3MSA94B")

node = stream.create("distribution", "My node")
stream.link(typenode, node)

# "Plot" tab
node.setPropertyValue("plot", "Flags")
node.setPropertyValue("x_field", "Age")
node.setPropertyValue("color_field", "Drug")
node.setPropertyValue("normalize", True)
node.setPropertyValue("sort_mode", "ByOccurence")
node.setPropertyValue("use_proportional_scale", True)
