Purpose

Calculates Cooks Distance for samples in a regression model.

Synopsis

distances = plotscores(model)

Description

Cooks distance measures how much the model would change if a given sample is left out. Specifically, Cooks distance is a metric of how much all of the fitted values change when the ith sample is removed. A larger distance value indicates a sample has a stronger influence on the fitted values.

  • Distance > 0.5: ith sample may be influential and may be worthy of further investigation.
  • Distance > 1: ith sample is quite likely to be influential.

Inputs

  • model = A standard model structure.

(Note: Currently only PLS models are supported.)

Outputs

  • distances = An m-by-1 vector of the calculated Cooks distances for each sample.
