geom_bar not displaying mean values - r

I'm currently trying to plot mean values of a variable pt for each combination of species/treatments in my experiments. This is the code I'm using:
ggplot(data = data, aes(x=treat, y=pt, fill=species)) +
geom_bar(position = "dodge", stat="identity") +
labs(x = "Treatment",
y = "Proportion of Beetles on Treated Side",
colour = "Species") +
theme(legend.position = "right")
As you can see, the plot seems to assume the mean of my 5N and 95E treatments are 1.00, which isn't correct. I have no idea where the problem could be here.

Took a stab at what you are asking using tidyverse and ggplot2 which is in tidyverse.
dat %>%
group_by(treat, species) %>%
summarise(mean_pt = mean(pt)) %>%
ungroup() %>%
ggplot(aes(x = treat, y = mean_pt, fill = species, group = species)) +
geom_bar(position = "dodge", stat = "identity")+
labs(x = "Treatment",
y = "Proportion of Beetles on Treated Side",
colour = "Species") +
theme(legend.position = "right") +
geom_text(aes(label = round(mean_pt, 3)), size = 3, hjust = 0.5, vjust = 3, position = position_dodge(width = 1))
dat is the actual dataset. and I calculated the mean_pt as that is what you are trying to plot. I also added a geom_text piece just so you can see what the results were and compare them to your thoughts.

From my understanding, this won't plot the means of your y variable by default. Have you calculated the means for each treatment? If not, I'd recommend adding a column to your dataframe that contains the mean. I'm sure there's an easier way to do this, but try:
data$means <- rep(NA, nrow(data))
for (x in 1:nrow(data)) {
#assuming "treat" column is column #1 in your data fram
data[x,ncol(data)] <- mean(which(data[,1]==data[x,1]))
}
Then try replacing
geom_bar(position = "dodge", stat="identity")
with
geom_col(position = "dodge")
If your y variable already contains means, simply switching geom_bar to geom_col as shown should work. Geom_bar with stat = "identity" will sum the values rather than return the mean.

Problem with the x-axis labels in ggplot2 using n.breaks

I use n.breaks to have a labeled x-axis mark for each cluster this works well for 4, 5, 6 clusters. Now I tried it with two cluster and it does not work anymore.
I build the graphs like this:
country_plot <- ggplot(Data) + aes(x = Cluster) +
theme(legend.title = element_blank(), axis.title.y = element_blank()) +
geom_bar(aes(fill = country), stat = "count", position = "fill", width = 0.85) +
scale_fill_manual(values = color_map_3, drop = F) +
scale_x_continuous(n.breaks = max(unique(Data$Cluster))) + scale_y_continuous(labels = percent) +
ggtitle("Country")
and export it like this:
ggsave("country_plot.png", plot = country_plot, device = "png", width = 16, height = 8, units = "cm")
When it works it looks something like this:
But with two clusters I get something like this with only one mark beyond the actual bars with a 2.5:
I manually checked the return value of
max(unique(Data$Cluster))
and it returns 2 which in my understanding should lead to two x-axis marks with 1 and 2 like it works with more clusters.
edit:
mutate(country = factor(country, levels = 1:3)) %>%
mutate(country =fct_recode(country,!!!country_factor_naming))%>%
mutate(Gender = factor(Gender, levels = 1:2)) %>%
mutate(Gender = fct_recode(Gender, !!!gender_factor_naming))%>%
If I understand correctly the issue is caused by Cluster being treated as continuous variable. It needs to be turned into a factor.
Here is a minimal, reproducible example using the mtcars dataset that reproduces the unwanted behaviour:
First attempt (continuous x-axis)
library(ggplot2)
library(scales)
ggplot(mtcars) +
aes(x = gear, fill = factor(vs)) +
geom_bar(stat = "count", position = "fill", width = 0.85) +
scale_y_continuous(labels = percent)
In this example, gear takes over the role of Cluster and is assigned to the x-axis.
There are unwanted labeled tick marks at x = 2.5, 3.5, 4.5, 5.5 which are due to the continuous scale.
Second attempt (continuous x-axis with n.breaks given)
ggplot(mtcars) +
aes(x = gear, fill = factor(vs)) +
geom_bar(stat = "count", position = "fill", width = 0.85) +
scale_x_continuous(n.breaks = length(unique(mtcars$gear))) +
scale_y_continuous(labels = percent)
Specifying n.breaks in scale_x_continuous() does not change the x-axis to discrete.
Third attempt (discrete x-axis, gear as factor)
When gear is turned into a factor, we get a labeled tick mark for each factor value;
ggplot(mtcars) +
aes(x = factor(gear), fill = factor(vs)) +
geom_bar(stat = "count", position = "fill", width = 0.85) +
scale_y_continuous(labels = percent)

Using stacked barplots in ggplot2 results in wrong axis

I created a new data set using tidyr:
library(tidyverse)
##Create some fake data
set.seed(3)
data <- tibble(
year = 1991:2020,
One = 11:40,
Two = 31:60,
Three = 61:90,
)
##Gather the variables to create a long dataset
new_data <- data %>%
gather(model, value, -year)
##plot the data
ggplot(new_data, aes(x = year, y = value, fill=model)) +
geom_bar(stat = "identity",position = "stack")+
geom_rangeframe() +
theme_tufte()
The Problem is that the y-axis is not at the correct length:
Adding a facet_grid to the code:
# facet_grid(~model)
I also tried adding
scale_y_continuous(limits = c(0, 150))
however it did not work.
I als tried adding a fake dataset which contains the range from min to max of my real data:
data2 <- tibble(
year = 1991:2020,
bmsum = dummy = c(11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,11,90)
)
new_data2 <- data2 %>%
gather(model, value, -year)
ggplot(new_data, aes(x = year, y = value, fill=model)) +
geom_bar(stat = "identity",position = "stack")+
geom_rangeframe(data=new_data2) +
facet_grid(~model)+
theme_pubclean()
There's nothing wrong with the axis, and this is nothing to do with the stacked plot. You're using ggthemes::geom_rangeframe(), which, if you view the description, creates:
Axis lines which extend to the maximum and minimum of the plotted data.
If you don't want those, don't use them. Your call to theme_tufte() is removing the background breaks, making it look like there's no axis.
You can put the lines back in after your theme_tufte() call by adding another call to theme() with an axis.line argument:
ggplot(new_data, aes(x = year, y = value, fill = model)) +
geom_bar(stat = "identity", position = "stack")+
theme_tufte() +
theme(axis.line = element_line(color = "black", size = 1))

How to correct the position of labels on piechart in ggplot. Also tell me how produce 3D piechart

One of the value in my dataset is zero, I think because of that I am not able to adjust labels correctly in my pie chart.
#Providing you all a sample dataset
Averages <- data.frame(Parameters = c("Cars","Motorbike","Bicycle","Airplane","Ships"), Values = c(15.00,2.81,50.84,51.86,0.00))
mycols <- c("#0073C2FF", "#EFC000FF", "#868686FF", "#CD534CFF","#FF9999")
duty_cycle_pie <- Averages %>% ggplot(aes(x = "", y = Values, fill = Parameters)) +
geom_bar(width = 1, stat = "identity", color = "white") +
coord_polar("y", start = 0)+
geom_text(aes(y = cumsum(Values) - 0.7*Values,label = round(Values*100/sum(Values),2)), color = "white")+
scale_fill_manual(values = mycols)
Labels are not placed in the correct way. Please tell me how can get 3D piechart.
Welcome to stackoverflow. I am happy to help, however, I must note that piecharts are highly debatable and 3D piecharts are considered bad practice.
https://www.darkhorseanalytics.com/blog/salvaging-the-pie
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misleading_graph#3D_Pie_chart_slice_perspective
Additionally, if the names of your variables reflect your actual dataset (Averages), a piechart would not be appropriate as the pieces do not seem to be describing parts of a whole. Ex: avg value of Bicycle is 50.84 and avg value of Airplane is 51.86. Having these result in 43% and 42% is confusing; a barchart would be easier to follow.
Nonetheless, the answer to your question about placement can be solved with position_stack().
library(tidyverse)
Averages <-
data.frame(
Parameters = c("Cars","Motorbike","Bicycle","Airplane","Ships"),
Values = c(15.00,2.81,50.84,51.86,0.00)
) %>%
mutate(
# this will ensure the slices go biggest to smallest (a best practice)
Parameters = fct_reorder(Parameters, Values),
label = round(Values/sum(Values) * 100, 2)
)
mycols <- c("#0073C2FF", "#EFC000FF", "#868686FF", "#CD534CFF","#FF9999")
Averages %>%
ggplot(aes(x = "", y = Values, fill = Parameters)) +
geom_bar(width = 1, stat = "identity", color = "white") +
coord_polar("y", start = 0) +
geom_text(
aes(y = Values, label = label),
color = "black",
position = position_stack(vjust = 0.5)
) +
scale_fill_manual(values = mycols)
To move the pieces towards the outside of the pie, you can look into ggrepel
https://stackoverflow.com/a/44438500/4650934
For my earlier point, I might try something like this instead of a piechart:
ggplot(Averages, aes(Parameters, Values)) +
geom_col(aes(y = 100), fill = "grey70") +
geom_col(fill = "navyblue") +
coord_flip()

ggplot fill variable to add to 100%

Here is a dataframe
DF <- data.frame(SchoolYear = c("2015-2016", "2016-2017"),
Value = sample(c('Agree', 'Disagree', 'Strongly agree', 'Strongly disagree'), 50, replace = TRUE))
I have created this graph.
ggplot(DF, aes(x = Value, fill = SchoolYear)) +
geom_bar(position = 'dodge', aes(y = (..count..)/sum(..count..))) +
geom_text(aes(y = ((..count..)/sum(..count..)), label = scales::percent((..count..)/sum(..count..))),
stat = "count", vjust = -0.25, size = 2, position = position_dodge(width = 0.9)) +
scale_y_continuous(labels = percent) +
ylab("Percent") + xlab("Response") +
theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 75, hjust = 1))
Is there a way to make the data for each school year add up to 100%, but not have the data stacked, in the graph?
I know this question is similar to this question Create stacked barplot where each stack is scaled to sum to 100%, but I don't want the graph to be stacked. I can't figure out how to apply the solution in my question to this situation. Also I would prefer not to summarize the data before graphing, as I have to make this graph many times using different data each time and would prefer not to have to summarize the data each time.
I'm not sure how to create the plot that you want without transforming the data. But if you want to re-use the same code for multiple datasets, you can write a function to transform your data and generate the plot at the same time:
plot.fun <- function (original.data) {
newDF <- reshape2::melt(apply(table(original.data), 1, prop.table))
Plot <- ggplot(newDF, aes(x=Value, y=value)) +
geom_bar(aes(fill=SchoolYear), stat="identity", position="dodge") +
geom_text(aes(group=SchoolYear, label=scales::percent(value)), stat="identity", vjust=-0.25, size=2, position=position_dodge(width=0.85)) +
scale_y_continuous(labels=scales::percent) +
ylab("Percent") + xlab("Response") +
theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 75, hjust = 1))
return (Plot)
}
plot.fun(DF)
Big Disclaimer: I would highly recommend you summarize your data before hand and not try to do these calculations within ggplot. That is not what ggplot is meant to do. Furthermore, it not only complicates your code unnecessarily, but can easily introduce bugs/unintended results.
Given that, it appears that what you want is doable (without summarizing first). A very hacky way to get what you want by doing the calculations within ggplot would be:
#Store factor values
fac <- unique(DF$SchoolYear)
ggplot(DF, aes(x = Value, fill = SchoolYear)) +
geom_bar(position = 'dodge', aes(y = (..count..)/stats::ave(..count.., get("fac", globalenv()), FUN = sum))) +
geom_text(aes(y = (..count..)/stats::ave(..count.., get("fac", globalenv()), FUN = sum), label = scales::percent((..count..)/stats::ave(..count.., get("fac", globalenv()), FUN = sum))),
stat = "count", vjust = -0.25, size = 2, position = position_dodge(width = 0.9)) +
scale_y_continuous(labels = percent) +
ylab("Percent") + xlab("Response") +
theme(axis.text.x = element_text(angle = 75, hjust = 1))
This takes the ..count.. variable and divides it by the sum within it's respective group using stats::ave. Note this can be messed up extremely easily.
Finally, we check to see the plot is in fact giving us what we want.
#Check to see we have the correct values
d2 <- DF
d2 <- setDT(d2)[, .(count = .N), by = .(SchoolYear, Value)][, percent := count/sum(count), by = SchoolYear]

ggplot2 bar chart with lines inside bars

I'm making a plot in which I have a 3x3 grid obtained from facet_wrap. Eight out of nine plots use geom_violin while the remaining plot is made using geom_bar. After finding some helpful answers here on the site, I got this all working. The problem that I have is that when I use fill = "white, color = "black" for my bar chart, it draws these lines inside the bars.
Here is some example code and figures.
library(tidyverse)
n <- 100
tib <- tibble(value = c(rnorm(n, mean = 100, sd = 10), rbinom(n, size = 1, prob = (1:4)/4)),
variable = rep(c("IQ", "Sex"), each = n),
year = factor(rep(2012:2015, n/2)))
ggplot(tib, aes(x = year, y = value)) +
facet_wrap(~variable, scales = "free_y") +
geom_violin(data = filter(tib, variable == "IQ")) +
geom_bar(data = filter(tib, variable == "Sex"), stat = "identity",
color = "black", fill = "white")
Now to my question: how do I get rid of these lines inside the bars? I just want it to be white with black borders. I've been experimenting a lot with various configurations, and I can manage to get rid of the lines but at the expense of screwing the facet up. I'm fairly certain it's got to do with the stat, but I'm at a loss trying to fix it. Any suggestions?
I would suggest summarizing the data within the barplot:
ggplot(tib, aes(x = year, y = value)) +
facet_wrap(~variable, scales = "free_y") +
geom_violin(data = filter(tib, variable == "IQ")) +
geom_bar(data = tib %>%
group_by(year,variable) %>%
summarise(value=sum(value)) %>%
filter(variable == "Sex"),
stat = "identity",
color = "black",
fill = "white")
I'm not sure this is a good way to represent the data, with the y-axes of the different panels representing very different things, but accept that your example might not match your actual use case. Making separate plots and then using gridExtra::grid.arrange, or cowplot::plot_grid is probably a better solution.
But if you want to do this
ggplot(tib, aes(x = year, y = value)) +
facet_wrap(~variable, scales = "free_y") +
geom_violin(data = filter(tib, variable == "IQ")) +
geom_col(data = filter(tib, variable == "Sex") %>%
group_by(year, variable) %>%
summarise(value = sum(value)),
fill = "white", colour = "black")
Using geom_col rather than geom_bar so I don't need to use stat = identity.
