FitBenchmarking Output

FitBenchmarking produces tables and reports called support pages as outputs. The links below give descriptions of these outputs.

Tables

Display modes

The tables for accuracy, runtime, emissions, and compare have three display modes:

{ 'abs': 'Absolute values are displayed in the table.',
  'both': 'Absolute and relative values are displayed in the table '
          'in the format ``abs (rel)``',
  'rel': 'Relative values are displayed in the table.'}

This can be set in the option file using the Comparison Mode option.

The Local Minimizer Table table is formatted differently, and doesn’t use this convention.

Performance profile

Below the table there is a Performance Profile.

Assuming the Dash app is running (i.e., it has not been stopped by the user), the performance profile is available in two versions:

an offline version, which is always available and does not depend on the status of the Dash app
an online version, which is more interactive than the offline version, but is only available if the Dash app is running.

The default version shown in the page is the offline one. The user can switch between the two versions by clicking on the corresponding button above the plot. If the Dash app is off and the graph currently open is the offline one, then clicking on the button for the online version will have no effect. On the other hand, if the Dash app stops running while the online graph is shown, then the graph will lose its interactivity, e.g., it will not be possible to change the x-axis scale.

Support Pages

In each of the tables, a fitting_report for an individual result can be accessed by clicking on the associated table cell. Clicking the problem name at the start of a row will open a Problem Summary Page for the problem as a whole.
