New R package autovi automates residual plot assessment using computer vision

A new R package named autovi has been developed to automate the assessment of residual plots, a task traditionally done manually for diagnosing linear models. This package utilizes a computer vision model to predict a visual signal strength (VSS) and provide supporting data, aiming to improve consistency and scalability. A companion Shiny application, autovi.web, is also available to facilitate user interaction with the automated assessment tool. AI

IMPACT Automates a manual diagnostic step in linear modeling, potentially improving efficiency and consistency for data analysts.

RANK_REASON The item describes a new R package and accompanying Shiny application for automated residual plot assessment, which falls under research and tooling for statistical analysis. [lever_c_demoted from research: ic=1 ai=0.7]

    Automated Residual Plot Assessment With the R Package autovi and the Shiny Application autovi.web

    Visual assessment of residual plots is a common approach for diagnosing linear models, but it relies on manual evaluation, which does not scale well and can lead to inconsistent decisions across analysts. The lineup protocol, which embeds the observed plot among null plots, can r…
