This function arranges a number of variables in pairs, ordered
by their bivariate relationships. The goal is to discover which variable
pairings are most helpful in avoiding extrapolations when exploring the data
space. Variable pairs with strong bivariate dependencies (not necessarily
linear) are chosen first. The bivariate dependency is measured using
savingby2d
. Each variable appears in the output only once.
arrangeC(data, method = "default")
A list containing character vectors giving variable pairings.
A dataframe
The character name for the method to use for measuring bivariate dependency, passed to savingby2d.
If data
is so big as to make arrangeC
very slow, a
random sample of rows is used instead. The bivariate dependency measures
are rough, and the ordering algorithm is a simple greedy one, so it is not
worth allowing it too much time.
