The GOZH(geographically optimal zones-based heterogeneity) model generates the optimal spatial zone based on the binary classification of the decision tree and then calculates the power of determinants.The LESH(locally explained heterogeneity model) based on GOZH model and combined with additive shapely theory to reasonably allocate variable interaction’s power of determinants.In this vignette ,we use ndvi data in gdverse package to demonstrate the spatial heterogeneity explanation based on GOZH and LESH model.

Compared to GOZH Interaction Detector , LESH only has a decomposition of the interactive contribution of variables,and the rest remains consistent.

gdverse supports modifications to the default ploting results, such as adding subfigure annotations and adjusting the size of the text on the x-y axis:

plot(lesh.m, pie = TRUE, scatter = TRUE,
     pielegend_x = 0.98, pielegend_y = 0.15) +
  patchwork::plot_annotation(tag_levels = 'a',
                             tag_prefix = '(',
                             tag_suffix = ')',
                             tag_sep = '',
                             theme = theme(plot.tag = element_text(family = "serif"))) &
  ggplot2::theme(axis.text.y = element_text(family = 'serif',size = 15),
                 axis.text.x = element_text(family = 'serif',size = 15,
                                            angle = 30,vjust = 0.85,hjust = 0.75),
                 axis.title = element_text(family = 'serif',size = 15))

And you can only look at the contribution part of the variable interaction:

plot(lesh.m, pie = TRUE, scatter = FALSE)

By accessing the concrete result through lesh.m$interaction, which returns a tibble.
