Draw longest possible vertical line between two curves in seaborn

Time:02-24

I currently have a plot like this (consider that data is the dataframe I pasted at the very bottom):

import seaborn as sns

sns.relplot(
    data = data,
    x = "Threshold",
    y = "Value",
    kind = "line",
    hue="Metric"
).set(xlabel="Threshold")

Which produces:

enter image description here

Now, I want to know how can I annotate a line in this plot, such that it is located between the curves, at the x-Axis value where the distance between curves are maximized. I would also need to annotate text to show the distance value.

It should be something like this:

enter image description here

Here is the pandas dataframe:

    The easiest way which I can think of is to create two separate lists of all values where the metric is Recall and another with all values where metric is Fall-out. This can be easily done using pandas operations as follows (Assuming the dataframe has name df) -

    import math
    import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
    ls_metric = df['Metric'].to_list()
    ls_value = df['Value'].to_list()
    ls_threshold = df['Threshold'].to_list()
    ls_value_recall = []
    ls_value_fallout = []
    ls_threshold_recall = []
    ls_threshold_fallout = []
    for i, j, k in zip(ls_metric, ls_value, ls_threshold):
        if (i == 'Recall'):
            ls_value_recall.append(j)
            ls_threshold_recall.append(k)
        elif(i == 'Fall-out'):
            ls_value_fallout.append(j)
            ls_threshold_recall.append(k)
    ls_dist = []
    for i, j in zip(ls_value_recall, ls_value_fallout):
        ls_dist.append(math.abs(i-j))
    max_diff = max(ls_dist)
    location_of_max_diff = ls_dist.index(max_diff)
    value_of_threshold_at_max_diff = ls_threshold_recall[location_of_max_diff]
    value_of_recall_at_max_diff = ls_value_recall[location_of_max_diff]
    value_of_fallout_at_max_diff = ls_value_fallout[location_of_max_diff]
    x_values = [value_of_threshold_at_max_diff, value_of_threshold_at_max_diff]
    y_values = [value_of_recall_at_max_diff, value_of_fallout_at_max_diff]
    plt.plot(x_values, y_values)
    

    Certain Assumptions - The Threshold Values are the same and same number of readings are present for both metrics which I think is true having had a brief glance at the data but if not I believe it's still pretty easy to modify the code

    You can add this plot to your own figure for which the syntax is readily available, now as far as the label for the line is concerned one way to do this is use matplotlib.pyplot.text to add a textbox but with that you'll need to tweak with the location to get the desired location another way to do this would be to add it as a legend only
