face2face.visualization.plot_probability_distribution.plot_inter_contact_duration(list_x_y, color_list, marker_list, label_list)

Plots the probability distribution for the inter-contact duration

Plots the values of the probability on the y-axis and the values of the inter-contact duration Delta T on the x-axis.

Parameters
  • list_x_y (list) – Contains the output of the “calculate_inter_contact_duration”-function, which is a list of the y-values (probabilities) and the x-values (inter-contact durations). You can add multiple lists of the “calculate_inter_contact_duration”-function in the list_x_y to compare them in the graph.

  • color_list (list) – Should contain a color for every list in list_x_y to define the color of the markers for the visualisation.

  • marker_list (list) – Should contain a marker for every list in list_x_y to define the shape of the data points.

  • label_list (list) – Should contain a string label for every list in list_x_y to create a comprehensible legend.
