CorrelationDiscrete: Create correlation heatmap for discrete features

Description

This function creates a correlation heatmap for all discrete categories.

Usage

CorrelationDiscrete(data, maxcat = 20, ...)

Arguments

data

input data to be plotted, in either data.frame or data.table format.

maxcat

maximum categories allowed for each feature. The default is 20.

…

other arguments to be passed to cor.

Details

The function first transposes all discrete categories into columns with binary outcomes, then calculates the correlation matrix (see cor) and plots it.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# correlation of discrete categories from diamonds dataset
library(ggplot2)
data(diamonds)
CorrelationDiscrete(diamonds)
# }
