BRPL (version 1.0.2)

plot,brplPlot-method: Plot Method for brplPlot Class

Description

This method defines the plotting behavior for objects of the class brplPlot. It generates a scatter plot visualizing the relationship between two variables (var1 and var2) along with classification indicators and an additional line for further insights.

Usage

# S4 method for brplPlot
plot(x, y, ...)

Value

This function does not return a value. It generates a plot as a side effect.

Arguments

x

An object of class brplPlot. The object must include the following slots:

  • @data: A data frame containing the data to be plotted, including var1, var2, and a classification indicator indicator.

  • @var1: A string specifying the name of the first variable to be plotted (X-axis).

  • @var2: A string specifying the name of the second variable to be plotted (Y-axis).

  • @indicator: A binary variable indicating the classification or grouping of points.

  • @tau: A threshold value included in the plot's title.

  • @plvar2: A matrix object defining the data points for the additional line in the plot.

y

Ignored. Included for compatibility with the generic plot function.

...

Additional arguments passed to the base R plot function.

Details

This method creates:

  • A scatter plot with points colored based on the value of indicator:

    • darkgreen for indicator = 1.

    • blue for other values.

  • An additional line, derived from the plvar2 matrix, drawn in black.

The title of the plot includes the threshold value (tau) for easier interpretation.
