- Train a regression model on your data using the Regression Learner App, including 'Sensor Output', 'Temperature', 'Humidity', and 'Sensor ID' as predictors. Use the Feature Selection option in the Regression Learner App to analyze the importance of each predictor in your model.
- You can also use the built-in 'Partial Dependence' plot to visualize how each predictor affects the response when all other predictors are held constant. This may give you insight into the interaction between 'Sensor ID' and other predictors.
Analyzing Impact of Sensor ID on Regression Model Output in MATLAB

Hello,
I'm currently using the Regression Learner App to create a model that analyses the output of various gas sensors. I achieve this by comparing the voltage output from each sensor against a reference dataset.
Each of my gas sensors is affected by both temperature and humidity. However, each sensor possesses unique characteristics with respect to these two factors.
My model takes the following inputs:
- Sensor Output
- Temperature
- Humidity
- Sensor ID
I have observed that when the 'Sensor ID' parameter is not incorporated into the regression app, the model tends to generate a more generalized output. On the other hand, when the 'Sensor ID' is included, the model produces a significantly more accurate output because it also accounts for the unique characteristics of each sensor.
I am interested in quantifying the impact of the 'Sensor ID' on the model's signal. Is there a method to achieve this using the Regression Learner App, or perhaps through another approach?
Ideally, understanding the extent of the effect of 'Sensor ID' would enable me to avoid the need for training a new model for each new sensor. Instead, I could simply adjust the input signal to align with the existing model.
I appreciate any guidance you can provide. Thank you in advance.

Hi Dharmesh,
I understand that you want to quantify the impact of 'Sensor ID' on your regression model in the Regression Learner App.
These are some of the approaches you can try to get more understanding of this feature:
Based on the results of your analysis, you can decide whether to exclude 'Sensor ID' as a predictor in future models or adjust your input signal accordingly.
Additionally, you can refer to these documentation links to know more about feature importance and partial dependence plot:
