statsmodels.graphics.plot_grids.scatter_ellipse(data, level=0.9, varnames=None, ell_kwds=None, plot_kwds=None, add_titles=False, keep_ticks=False, fig=None) [source]

Create a grid of scatter plots with confidence ellipses.

ell_kwds, plot_kdes not used yet

looks ok with 5 or 6 variables, too crowded with 8, too empty with 1

Parameters:	data (array_like) – Input data. level (scalar, optional) – Default is 0.9. varnames (list of str, optional) – Variable names. Used for y-axis labels, and if add_titles is True also for titles. If not given, integers 1..data.shape[1] are used. ell_kwds (dict, optional) – UNUSED plot_kwds (dict, optional) – UNUSED add_titles (bool, optional) – Whether or not to add titles to each subplot. Default is False. Titles are constructed from varnames. keep_ticks (bool, optional) – If False (default), remove all axis ticks. fig (Matplotlib figure instance, optional) – If given, this figure is simply returned.
