I have a few rasters I would like to plot using gplot in the rasterVis package. I just discovered gplot (which is fantastic and so much faster than doing data.frame(rasterToPoints(r))). However, I can't get a discrete image to show. Normally if r is a raster, I'd do:
rdf=data.frame(rasterToPoints(r))
rdf$cuts=cut(rdf$value,breaks=seq(0,max(rdf$value),length.out=5))
ggplot(rdf)+geom_raster(aes(x,y,fill=cuts))
But is there a way to avoid the call to rasterToPoints? It is very slow with large rasters. I did find I could do:
cuts=cut_interval(r#data#values,n=5)
but if you set the fill to cuts it plots the integer representation of the factors.
Here is some reproducible data:
x=seq(-107,-106,.1)
y=seq(33,34,.1)
coords=expand.grid(x,y)
rdf=data.frame(coords,depth=runif(nrow(coords),0,2)))
names(rdf)=c('x','y','value')
r=rasterFromXYZ(rdf)
Thanks
gplot is a very simple wrapper around ggplot so don't expect too
much from it. Instead, you can use part of its code to build your own
solution. The main point here is to use sampleRegular to reduce the
number of points to be displayed.
library(raster)
library(ggplot2)
x <- sampleRegular(r, size=5000, asRaster = TRUE)
dat <- as.data.frame(r, xy=TRUE)
dat$cuts <- cut(dat$value,
breaks=seq(0, max(dat$value), length.out=5))
ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y), data = dat) +
geom_raster(aes(x, y, fill=cuts))
However, if you are open to plot without ggplot2 you may find useful
this other
answer.

Is it possible to create custom graphs using ggplot2, for example I want to create a graph of kissing people.
Simple variant
Not completely, but partially, I was able to reproduce it, everything except for the "lines of the eyes" is not clear how to mark them
But how to make a more complex graph of kissing people. In general, is it possible to somehow approximate such a curve, more voluminou?
thank you for your help.
perhaps not what you are looking for, but if you have already got the image, and want to reproduce it in ggplot, then you can use the following method:
library(tidyverse)
library(magick)
library(terra)
# read image
im <- image_read("./data/kiss_1.png")
# conver to black/white image
im2 <- im %>%
image_quantize(
max = 2,
colorspace = "gray" )
# get a matrix of the pixel-colors
m <- as.raster(im2) %>% as.matrix()
# extract coordinates of the black pixels
df <- as.data.frame(which(m == "#000000ff", arr.ind=TRUE))
df$row <- df$row * -1
# plot point
ggplot(df, aes(x = col, y = row)) + geom_point()
There are questions out there about the fact that ggplot2 can't plot polygon shapes that have holes.
That is because, if the order of points is not OK, the end graph looks bad, usually with clipping/trimming lines inside the donut shape.
I have read a lot about how order matters, but I am not able to step forward.
I have a SpatialPolygonsDataFrame with 26 features (comes from raster::rasterToPolygons(dissolve=T)) and I want to plot it with ggplot.
Here's what happens -
r3.pol <- rasterToPolygons(r3, dissolve=T)
r3.df <- fortify(r3.pol)
names(r3.df) <- c('x','y','order','hole','piece','ID','group')
p <- ggplot(r3.df)
p <- p + geom_polygon(mapping=aes(x=x,y=y,group=ID), fill='red')
p <- p + coord_equal()
I see this output:
While it should be like so, with plot(r3.pol):
How can I make this work?
I tried for hours but I am not able to reorder r3.df.
Also, can the information in r3.df$hole be helpful? It is returned by the function fortify for points that are holes (I think).
Side question: how can I give you my r3.pol SpatialPolygonsDataFrame, so that you can try yourself? I remember seeing long, reproducible "dumps" of objects here, but I don't know how to do it.
I saved the polygons data frame here. Was not able to save it using dput, sorry. You can fetch it using load.
I suggest to install the package "ggpolypath" and use geom_polypath instead of geom_polygon. Works for me.
My temporary solution is: ##$% polygons, and use the raster package.
Namely:
r <- raster(x=extent(r3.pol), crs=crs(r3.pol)) # empty raster from r3.pol
res(r) <- 250 # set a decent resolution (depends on your extent)
r <- setValues(r, 1) # fill r with ones
r <- mask(r, r3.pol) # clip r with the shape polygons
And now plot it as you would do with any raster with ggplot. The rasterVis package might come helpful here, but I'm not using it, so:
rdf <- data.frame(rasterToPoints(r))
p <- ggplot(rdf) + geom_raster(mapping=aes(x=x, y=y), fill='red')
p <- p + coord_equal()
And here it goes.
Alternatively, you can create the raster with rasterize, so the raster will hold the polygons values (in my case, just an integer):
r <- raster(x=extent(r3.pol), crs=crs(r3.pol))
res(r) <- 250
r <- rasterize(r3.pol, r)
rdf <- data.frame(rasterToPoints(r))
p <- ggplot(rdf) + geom_raster(mapping=aes(x=x, y=y, fill=factor(layer)))
p <- p + coord_equal()
If someone comes up with a decent solution for geom_polygon, probably involving re-ordering of the polygons data frame, I'll be glad to consider it.
I'm working with some custom functions and I need to draw contours for them based on multiple values for the parameters.
Here is an example function:
I need to draw such a contour plot:
Any idea?
Thanks.
First you construct a function, fourvar that takes those four parameters as arguments. In this case you could have done it with 3 variables one of which was lambda_2 over lambda_1. Alpha1 is fixed at 2 so alpha_1/alpha_2 will vary over 0-10.
fourvar <- function(a1,a2,l1,l2){
a1* integrate( function(x) {(1-x)^(a1-1)*(1-x^(l2/l1) )^a2} , 0 , 1)$value }
The trick is to realize that the integrate function returns a list and you only want the 'value' part of that list so it can be Vectorize()-ed.
Second you construct a matrix using that function:
mat <- outer( seq(.01, 10, length=100),
seq(.01, 10, length=100),
Vectorize( function(x,y) fourvar(a1=2, x/2, l1=2, l2=y/2) ) )
Then the task of creating the plot with labels in those positions can only be done easily with lattice::contourplot. After doing a reasonable amount of searching it does appear that the solution to geom_contour labeling is still a work in progress in ggplot2. The only labeling strategy I found is in an external package. However, the 'directlabels' package's function directlabel does not seem to have sufficient control to spread the labels out correctly in this case. In other examples that I have seen, it does spread the labels around the plot area. I suppose I could look at the code, but since it depends on the 'proto'-package, it will probably be weirdly encapsulated so I haven't looked.
require(reshape2)
mmat <- melt(mat)
str(mmat) # to see the names in the melted matrix
g <- ggplot(mmat, aes(x=Var1, y=Var2, z=value) )
g <- g+stat_contour(aes(col = ..level..), breaks=seq(.1, .9, .1) )
g <- g + scale_colour_continuous(low = "#000000", high = "#000000") # make black
install.packages("directlabels", repos="http://r-forge.r-project.org", type="source")
require(directlabels)
direct.label(g)
Note that these are the index positions from the matrix rather than the ratios of parameters, but that should be pretty easy to fix.
This, on the other hand, is how easilyy one can construct it in lattice (and I think it looks "cleaner":
require(lattice)
contourplot(mat, at=seq(.1,.9,.1))
As I think the question is still relevant, there have been some developments in the contour plot labeling in the metR package. Adding to the previous example will give you nice contour labeling also with ggplot2
require(metR)
g + geom_text_contour(rotate = TRUE, nudge_x = 3, nudge_y = 5)
See this example
This was created in matlab by making two scatter plots independently, creating images of each, then using the imagesc to draw them into the same figure and then finally setting the alpha of the top image to 0.5.
I would like to do this in R or matlab without using images, since creating an image does not preserve the axis scale information, nor can I overlay a grid (e.g. using 'grid on' in matlab). Ideally I wold like to do this properly in matlab, but would also be happy with a solution in R. It seems like it should be possible but I can't for the life of me figure it out.
So generally, I would like to be able to set the alpha of an entire plotted object (i.e. of a matlab plot handle in matlab parlance...)
Thanks,
Ben.
EDIT: The data in the above example is actually 2D. The plotted points are from a computer simulation. Each point represents 'amplitude' (y-axis) (an emergent property specific to the simulation I'm running), plotted against 'performance' (x-axis).
EDIT 2: There are 1796400 points in each data set.
Using ggplot2 you can add together two geom_point's and make them transparent using the alpha parameter. ggplot2 als adds up transparency, and I think this is what you want. This should work, although I haven't run this.
dat = data.frame(x = runif(1000), y = runif(1000), cat = rep(c("A","B"), each = 500))
ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y, color = cat), data = dat) + geom_point(alpha = 0.3)
ggplot2 is awesome!
This is an example of calculating and drawing a convex hull:
library(automap)
library(ggplot2)
library(plyr)
loadMeuse()
theme_set(theme_bw())
meuse = as.data.frame(meuse)
chull_per_soil = ddply(meuse, .(soil),
function(sub) sub[chull(sub$x, sub$y),c("x","y")])
ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y), data = meuse) +
geom_point(aes(size = log(zinc), color = ffreq)) +
geom_polygon(aes(color = soil), data = chull_per_soil, fill = NA) +
coord_equal()
which leads to the following illustration:
You could first export the two data sets as bitmap images, re-import them, add transparency:
library(grid)
N <- 1e7 # Warning: slow
d <- data.frame(x1=rnorm(N),
x2=rnorm(N, 0.8, 0.9),
y=rnorm(N, 0.8, 0.2),
z=rnorm(N, 0.2, 0.4))
v <- with(d, dataViewport(c(x1,x2),c(y, z)))
png("layer1.png", bg="transparent")
with(d, grid.points(x1,y, vp=v,default="native",pch=".",gp=gpar(col="blue")))
dev.off()
png("layer2.png", bg="transparent")
with(d, grid.points(x2,z, vp=v,default="native",pch=".",gp=gpar(col="red")))
dev.off()
library(png)
i1 <- readPNG("layer1.png", native=FALSE)
i2 <- readPNG("layer2.png", native=FALSE)
ghostize <- function(r, alpha=0.5)
matrix(adjustcolor(rgb(r[,,1],r[,,2],r[,,3],r[,,4]), alpha.f=alpha), nrow=dim(r)[1])
grid.newpage()
grid.rect(gp=gpar(fill="white"))
grid.raster(ghostize(i1))
grid.raster(ghostize(i2))
you can add these as layers in, say, ggplot2.
Use the transparency capability of color descriptions. You can define a color as a sequence of four 2-byte words: muddy <- "#888888FF" . The first three pairs set the RGB colors (00 to FF); the final pair sets the transparency level.
AFAIK, your best option with Matlab is to just make your own plot function. The scatter plot points unfortunately do not yet have a transparency attribute so you cannot affect it. However, if you create, say, most crudely, a bunch of loops which draw many tiny circles, you can then easily give them an alpha value and obtain a transparent set of data points.
I just came by the following plot:
And wondered how can it be done in R? (or other softwares)
Update 10.03.11: Thank you everyone who participated in answering this question - you gave wonderful solutions! I've compiled all the solution presented here (as well as some others I've came by online) in a post on my blog.
Make.Funny.Plot does more or less what I think it should do. To be adapted according to your own needs, and might be optimized a bit, but this should be a nice start.
Make.Funny.Plot <- function(x){
unique.vals <- length(unique(x))
N <- length(x)
N.val <- min(N/20,unique.vals)
if(unique.vals>N.val){
x <- ave(x,cut(x,N.val),FUN=min)
x <- signif(x,4)
}
# construct the outline of the plot
outline <- as.vector(table(x))
outline <- outline/max(outline)
# determine some correction to make the V shape,
# based on the range
y.corr <- diff(range(x))*0.05
# Get the unique values
yval <- sort(unique(x))
plot(c(-1,1),c(min(yval),max(yval)),
type="n",xaxt="n",xlab="")
for(i in 1:length(yval)){
n <- sum(x==yval[i])
x.plot <- seq(-outline[i],outline[i],length=n)
y.plot <- yval[i]+abs(x.plot)*y.corr
points(x.plot,y.plot,pch=19,cex=0.5)
}
}
N <- 500
x <- rpois(N,4)+abs(rnorm(N))
Make.Funny.Plot(x)
EDIT : corrected so it always works.
I recently came upon the beeswarm package, that bears some similarity.
The bee swarm plot is a
one-dimensional scatter plot like
"stripchart", but with closely-packed,
non-overlapping points.
Here's an example:
library(beeswarm)
beeswarm(time_survival ~ event_survival, data = breast,
method = 'smile',
pch = 16, pwcol = as.numeric(ER),
xlab = '', ylab = 'Follow-up time (months)',
labels = c('Censored', 'Metastasis'))
legend('topright', legend = levels(breast$ER),
title = 'ER', pch = 16, col = 1:2)

I have come up with the code similar to Joris, still I think this is more than a stem plot; here I mean that they y value in each series is a absolute value of a distance to the in-bin mean, and x value is more about whether the value is lower or higher than mean.
Example code (sometimes throws warnings but works):
px<-function(x,N=40,...){
x<-sort(x);
#Cutting in bins
cut(x,N)->p;
#Calculate the means over bins
sapply(levels(p),function(i) mean(x[p==i]))->meansl;
means<-meansl[p];
#Calculate the mins over bins
sapply(levels(p),function(i) min(x[p==i]))->minl;
mins<-minl[p];
#Each dot is one value.
#X is an order of a value inside bin, moved so that the values lower than bin mean go below 0
X<-rep(0,length(x));
for(e in levels(p)) X[p==e]<-(1:sum(p==e))-1-sum((x-means)[p==e]<0);
#Y is a bin minum + absolute value of a difference between value and its bin mean
plot(X,mins+abs(x-means),pch=19,cex=0.5,...);
}
Try the vioplot package:
library(vioplot)
vioplot(rnorm(100))
(with awful default color ;-)
There is also wvioplot() in the wvioplot package, for weighted violin plot, and beanplot, which combines violin and rug plots. They are also available through the lattice package, see ?panel.violin.
Since this hasn't been mentioned yet, there is also ggbeeswarm as a relatively new R package based on ggplot2.
Which adds another geom to ggplot to be used instead of geom_jitter or the like.
In particular geom_quasirandom (see second example below) produces really good results and I have in fact adapted it as default plot.
Noteworthy is also the package vipor (VIolin POints in R) which produces plots using the standard R graphics and is in fact also used by ggbeeswarm behind the scenes.
set.seed(12345)
install.packages('ggbeeswarm')
library(ggplot2)
library(ggbeeswarm)
ggplot(iris,aes(Species, Sepal.Length)) + geom_beeswarm()
ggplot(iris,aes(Species, Sepal.Length)) + geom_quasirandom()
#compare to jitter
ggplot(iris,aes(Species, Sepal.Length)) + geom_jitter()
