plot.topicCorr: Plot a topic correlation graph

Description

Uses a topic correlation graph estimated by topicCorr and the igraph package to plot a network where nodes are topics and edges indicate a positive correlation.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'topicCorr':
plot(x, topics = NULL, vlabels = NULL, 
              layout = layout.fruchterman.reingold, 
              vertex.color = "green", vertex.label.cex = 0.75, 
              vertex.label.color = "black", ...)

Arguments

A topicCorr model object.

topics

A vector of topics to include in the plot, defaults to all.

vlabels

A character vector of labels for the vertices. Defaults to "Topic #"

layout

The layout algorithm passed to the igraph package.

vertex.color

Color of the vertices.

vertex.label.cex

Controls the size of the labels.

vertex.label.color

Controls the color of the labels.

...

Additional parameters passed to plot.graph.adjacency

Details

Essentially a thin wrapper around the plotting functionality in the igraph package. See package vignette for more details.

Examples

Run this code

#This function becomes more useful with larger numbers of topics.
#it is demonstrated here with a small model simply to show how the syntax works.
cormat <- topicCorr(gadarianFit)
plot(cormat)
