VIM (version 4.1.0)

marginmatrix: Marginplot Matrix

Description

Create a scatterplot matrix with information about missing/imputed values in the plot margins of each panel.

Usage

marginmatrix(x, delimiter = NULL, col = c("skyblue", "red", "red4",
  "orange", "orange4"), alpha = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

a matrix or data.frame.

delimiter

a character-vector to distinguish between variables and imputation-indices for imputed variables (therefore, x needs to have colnames). If given, it is used to determine the corresponding impu

col

a vector of length five giving the colors to be used in the marginplots in the off-diagonal panels. The first color is used for the scatterplot and the boxplots for the available data, the second/fourth color for the univariate scatterplots and boxplots

alpha

a numeric value between 0 and 1 giving the level of transparency of the colors, or NULL. This can be used to prevent overplotting.

Details

marginmatrix uses pairsVIM with a panel function based on marginplot.

The graphical parameter oma will be set unless supplied as an argument.

Examples

data(sleep, package = "VIM")
## for missing values
x <- sleep[, 1:5]
x[,c(1,2,4)] <- log10(x[,c(1,2,4)])
marginmatrix(x)

## for imputed values
x_imp <- kNN(sleep[, 1:5])
x_imp[,c(1,2,4)] <- log10(x_imp[,c(1,2,4)])
marginmatrix(x_imp, delimiter = "_imp")
