Tools to create an interactive web-based visualization of a topic model that has been fit to a corpus of text data using Latent Dirichlet Allocation (LDA). Given the estimated parameters of the topic model, it computes various summary statistics as input to an interactive visualization built with D3.js that is accessed via a browser. The goal is to help users interpret the topics in their LDA topic model.

With 'pitchRx', one can easily obtain Major League Baseball Advanced Media's 'Gameday' data (as well as store it in a remote database). The 'Gameday' website hosts a wealth of data in XML format, but perhaps most interesting is 'pitchfx'. Among other things, 'pitchfx' data can be used to recreate a baseball's flight path from a pitcher's hand to home plate. With pitchRx, one can easily create animations and interactive 3D 'scatterplots' of the baseball's flight path. 'pitchfx' data is also commonly used to generate a static plot of baseball locations at the moment they cross home plate. These plots, sometimes called strike-zone plots, can also refer to a plot of event probabilities over the same region. 'pitchRx' provides an easy and robust way to generate strike-zone plots using the 'ggplot2' package.

Create interactive web graphics from 'ggplot2' graphs and/or a custom interface to the (MIT-licensed) JavaScript library 'plotly.js' inspired by the grammar of graphics.

Includes 'JavaScript' files that allow 'plotly' maps to render without an internet connection.

Access the DOM of a webpage as HTML using phantomjs.

XML2R is a framework that reduces the effort required to transform XML content into number of tables while preserving parent to child relationships.

Allows printing of character strings as messages/warnings/etc. with ASCII animals, including cats, cows, frogs, chickens, ghosts, and more.

Data from the six Australian Federal Elections (House of Representatives) between 2001 and 2016, and from the four Australian Censuses over the same period. Includes tools for visualizing and analysing the data, as well as imputing Census data for years in which a Census does not occur. This package incorporates data that is copyright Commonwealth of Australia (Australian Electoral Commission) 2016.

A framework for loading medium-sized data from the Internet to a local or remote relational database management system. This package itself does not do much more than provide a toy example and set up the method structure. Packages that depend on this package will facilitate the construction and maintenance of their respective databases.

Format for converting an R Markdown document to a grid oriented dashboard. The dashboard flexibly adapts the size of it's components to the containing web page.

An interactive animation can be defined using a list of ggplots with clickSelects and showSelected aesthetics.

Easily visualize and animate 'tabledap' and 'griddap' objects obtained via the 'rerddap' package in a simple one-line command, using either base graphics or 'ggplot2' graphics. 'plotdap' handles extracting and reshaping the data, map projections and continental outlines. Optionally the data can be animated through time using the 'gganmiate' package.

Start an HTTP server in R to serve static files, or dynamic documents that can be converted to HTML files (e.g., R Markdown) under a given directory.
