use_e1071

<p>if e1071 is not listed a a dependency I get an error. I assume
  caret uses it to calculate feature importance. However, e1071 is not listed
  as a caret dependency. I have to add a function that directly calls it, so
  I do not get a NOTE from RMD Check on Linux.</p>

Alluvial plots are similar to sankey diagrams and visualise categorical data
over multiple dimensions as flows. (Rosvall M, Bergstrom CT (2010) Mapping Change in
Large Networks. PLoS ONE 5(1): e8694. <doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0008694>
Their graphical grammar however is a bit more complex then that of a regular x/y
plots. The 'ggalluvial' package made a great job of translating that grammar into
'ggplot2' syntax and gives you many options to tweak the appearance of an alluvial
plot, however there still remains a multi-layered complexity that makes it difficult
to use 'ggalluvial' for explorative data analysis. 'easyalluvial' provides a simple
interface to this package that allows you to produce a decent alluvial plot from any
dataframe in either long or wide format from a single line of code while also handling
continuous data. It is meant to allow a quick visualisation of entire dataframes
with a focus on different colouring options that can make alluvial plots a great
tool for data exploration.
