Hi everybody, Excuse me for this silly question, but after searching the help archives I'm still unable to find my way to read the source code of the "biplot" function in R. I have installed the mvbutils package, and tried: > fixr(biplot) which only gives me: function (x, ...) UseMethod("biplot") with no further details.... I'd like to read the code to see if

Hello all, I just started in on R today. I am at the point where I am trying to distinguish different groups of data (hydrochemical data) in biplot. I search and found a post about converting the sample number in biplot to a symbol like x or + "> temp <- matrix(runif(50), nrow=10) > temp.pca <- princomp(temp) > biplot(temp.pca, xlabs=c("A", "A",

I'm attempting to modify how biplot draws its red vectors (among other things). This is how I've started: Biplot <- function(xx, comps = c(1, 2), cex = c(.6, .4)) { ## Purpose: Makes a biplot with princomp() object to not show arrows ## ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ## Arguments: xx is an object made using princomp() ##

Hi, I am trying to understand how the biplot.prcomp is constructed so I can manipulate it to emphasise particular observations and reduce the number of variables shown. The prcomp model I have ran has cor=TRUE and scale=TRUE I have worked out from looking at str(prcomp.model) that... prcomp.model$x = the observations ploted in the biplot prcomp.model$rotation = the variables that form the

Hi, I am wondering how to draw biplot with the same scales on both plots? For example, if the two plots have much different scales, generally the two x-y's are scaled so that the two plots are sitting in the center automatically. How to disable this?

Dear R-helpers, The vectors in my biplot are completely obscured by the ~1400 labels R is printing on my biplot. I don't really care about the labels. How can I make the biplot without the annoying labels? See attached, if that helps you see my problem. Many thanks, Mark Na

Dear list, I want to perform a biplot, using customized titels for the x and y axis. Setting xlab="" and ylab="" resulted in an error, e.g.: > data(USArrests) > biplot(princomp(USArrests),xlab="",ylab="") Error in biplot.default(t(t(scores[, choices])/lam), t(t(x$loadings[, : length of dimnames[1] not equal to array extent > How do I

Hi is there a way to plot only the loadings in a biplot (with the nice arrows), and to skip the scores? thanks christoph

Hello everybody, I am afraid this might be a stupid question, but after scanning a little bit through the help archive and the internet, I didn't come up with an answer myself. I have done a principle component analysis on a data set, which yields the mean response of 14 olfactory neurons to 16 different odors. When plotting the result in a biplot, it nicely shows me the odors in

Which is the parameter that is used to decrease the size of ylabs plotted in biplot? I tried playing with cex and cex.lab I am not getting it right pc <- princomp(USArrests) biplot(pc, xlabs = rep("", nrow(USArrests)),ylabs=(colnames(USArrests))) Thanks../Murli [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

Full_Name: Hinrich Göhlmann Version: 1.4.1 OS: Windows 2000 Submission from: (NULL) (148.177.130.121) Hi all, I've searched the known bugs and hopefully I did not oversee this one... When I have done a normal zz<-princomp(na.omit(raw.data)) and I then draw a biplot with biplot(zz,cex=c(.1,.7),col=c(5,1),choice=c(1,2),xlim=c(-2,2),ylim=c(-5,2)) the x axis gets set properly, but the y

Hi everyone, I am doing PCA with labdsv package. I was trying to create a biplot graphs in order to observe arrows related to my variables. However when I run the script for this graph, the console just keep saying: *Error in nrow(y) : element 1 is empty; the part of the args list of 'dim' being evaluated was: (x)* could please someone tell me what this means? what i am doing

Dear R-help fellows good afternoon. I am struggling in the attempt to impose some graphical conditions (changing point symbols, colors, etc) to biplot function (I am using it to visualize the results of princomp) but I can't apparently manage to change anything but the axis... and I have been browsing manuals and vignettes without finding any explicit suggestions on how to operate... Can

Hi everyone. I performing a simple PCA using the princomp function. Then, I use the biplot function to show it. However, the function use line number to represent samples. I would like to know if there's a way to use a dot (point) instead of the line number when using the biplot function. With regards, Phil -- View this message in context:

Dear list, I'm trying to make a biplot, but instead of plotting the row number for each observation, plot a group factor. Example: prcomp(iris[,1:4]) -> PCA biplot(PCA) #this makes a nice biplot but with row names Instead of row numbers I want to plot iris[,5], which is a factor. I can do this: plot(PCA$x[,1], PCA$x[,2], type="n") text(PCA$x[,1], PCA$x[,2], labels=iris[,5],

I've tried a few things both with prcomp(), and rda() and its friends in vegan (including biplot.rda and ordiplot), but can't find a solution. I'd like to associate subsets of the points in a resulting biplot ("sites" in the rda object) with different plotting colors/text styles to emphasize certain sets of points. I can't figure out how to keep the arrows (for

[was sent a wrong R-help address; manually resent by MM] Hello I'am using the 'biplot' and 'biplot.pincomp' functions of the 'mva' package for my studies. The biplot represents both the observations and the variables of a matrix of multivariate data on the same plot. The observations are represented by their numbers (the line of the data matrix), but I would need to

Hi! Is there a way to get biplot and identify to work togheter. Having the output of prcomp I would like to draw a biplot that. Instead of plotting the sample (row-names) names plots some "pch" symbols. (thats easy with xlabs) But now I would like to add using identify the names to only some of the points. I have noticed that both biplot.prcomp and biplot.default does a lot of
