ggpcp: Parallel Coordinates Plot with Circular Variables

Description

Making a parallel coordinates plot with the circular variables are plotted as ellipses. The function currently works well with data with one circular variable.

Usage

ggpcp(
  data,
  circ.var = NULL,
  is.degree = TRUE,
  rotate = 0,
  north = 0,
  cw = FALSE,
  order.appear = NULL,
  linetype = 1,
  size = 0.5,
  alpha = 0.5,
  clustering,
  medoids = NULL,
  cluster.col = NULL,
  show.medoids = FALSE,
  labelsize = 4,
  xlab = "Variables",
  ylab = NULL,
  legend.cluster = "groups"
)

Arguments

data

Data set.

circ.var

Circular variable(s) in the data set, indicated by names or index in the data set.

is.degree

Whether the unit of the circular variables is degree or not (radian). Default is TRUE.

rotate

The rotate (offset, shift) of the circular variable, in radians. Default is 0 (no rotation).

north

What value of the circular variable is labeled North. Default is 0 radian.

cw

Which direction of the circular variable is considered increasing in value, clockwise (TRUE) or counter-clockwise (FALSE). Default is TRUE.

order.appear

The order of appearance of the variables, listed by a vector of names or index. If set, length has to be equal to the number of variables in the data set.

linetype

Line type. Default is solid line. See details in vignette("ggplot2-specs").

size

Size of a line is its width in mm. Default is 0.5. See details in vignette("ggplot2-specs").

alpha

The transparency of the lines. Default is 0.1.

clustering

Cluster membership.

medoids

Vector of medoid observations of cluster. Only required when show.medoids = TRUE.

cluster.col

Color of clusters, indicating by a vector. If set, the length of this vector must be equal to the number of clusters in clustering.

show.medoids

Whether to highlight the median lines or not. Default is FALSE.

labelsize

The size of labels on the plot. Default is 4.

xlab

Labels for x-axis.

ylab

Labels for y-axis.

legend.cluster

Labels for group membership. Implemented by setting label for ggplot color aesthetics.

Value

A ggplot2 object.

Examples

# NOT RUN {
# Set color constant
COLOR4 <- c("#e41a1c", "#377eb8", "#4daf4a", "#984ea3")
# Reduce the size of the data for for sake of example speed
set.seed(12345)
wind_reduced <- wind_sensit_2007[sample.int(nrow(wind_sensit_2007), 50), ]

sol42007 <- MonoClust(wind_reduced, cir.var = 3, nclusters = 4)

library(ggplot2)
ggpcp(data = wind_reduced,
      circ.var = "WDIR",
      # To improve aesthetics
      rotate = pi*3/4-0.3,
      order.appear = c("WDIR", "has.sensit", "WS"),
      alpha = 0.5,
      clustering = sol42007$membership,
      medoids = sol42007$medoids,
      cluster.col = COLOR4,
      show.medoids = TRUE) +
  theme(panel.background = element_rect(color = "white"),
        panel.border = element_rect(color = "white", fill = NA),
        panel.grid.major = element_line(color = "#f0f0f0"),
        panel.grid.minor = element_blank(),
        axis.line = element_line(color = "black"),
        legend.key = element_rect(color = NA),
        legend.position = "bottom",
        legend.direction = "horizontal",
        legend.title = element_text(face = "italic"),
        legend.justification = "center")
