Bar Plot from Scientific Research

Bacterial taxa (at the sequence variant or SV) were selected by the random forest classification (RFC) and ranked according to their importance in the classification. RFC comparisons are shown in pregnant women with SARS-CoV-2 infection during pregnancy vs. HC. Bars’ colors indicate the comparison group (i.e., SARS-CoV-2 or HC), and each bar indicates the importance by which the increase on an SV predicts a particular comparison group. The selection of the variables for RFC was performed with Boruta algorithm. We also used the Local Interpretable Model-agnostic Explanation (LIME) to estimate a threshold of the abundance of the SV selected with Boruta that predicts a particular comparison group.
