This page shows how to use scatter plots in W&B.

​
Use case

Use scatter plots to compare multiple runs and visualize the performance of an experiment:
  • Plot lines for minimum, maximum, and average values.
  • Customize metadata tooltips.
  • Control point colors.
  • Adjust axis ranges.
  • Use a log scale for the axes.

​
Example

The following example shows a scatter plot displaying validation accuracy for different models over several weeks of experimentation. The tooltip includes batch size, dropout, and axis values. A line also shows the running average of validation accuracy. See a live example →
