Diagnose model weakness regions using AMIF (Adversarial Mutual Information Forest).
AMIF partitions the data into a 2D grid (geometry score × MI score) and identifies regions where the model performs poorly. For each grid cell, the model metric is computed on train and test subsets; weak regions are those in the bottom fraction of test performance. Features are then ranked by Jensen–Shannon divergence between the weak-region distribution and the rest, highlighting which features differ most where the model struggles.
- Parameters:

{"main", "train", "test"}, default"train".test_dataset – Dataset split used for test performance —
{"main", "train", "test"}, default"test".metric – Metric name; defaults to
"MSE"for regression and"ACC"for classification.geometry_method – Geometry scoring method —
"arf"(Adversarial Random Forest) or"carf"(Custom Adversarial Random Forest), default"arf".bins – Number of quantile bins for each axis of the 2D grid, default
10.weak_fraction – Fraction of test bins (by metric) considered weak, default
0.2.top_n_features – Number of top features to show in the JS-divergence ranking, default
10.min_count – Minimum sample count per bin to compute the metric, default
20.geometry_min_samples_leaf (geometry_n_estimators geometry_max_depth) – CARF geometry-scorer settings (defaults
120/12/20).geometry_max_iters (geometry_num_trees) – ARF geometry-scorer settings (defaults
30/10).mi_n_splits (mi_n_estimators mi_max_depth mi_min_samples_leaf) – MI-scorer settings (defaults
