Dear R-helpers, I'm plotting geophysical data in the form of contours using "filled.contour". The display would be much more effective if the areas with negative values could be color coded by -- say -- "cold colors" in the range of blue to green, and conversely the areas with positive values got plotted with "warm colors", from yellow to red. Right now if I use

After "image" and "persp" would it be interesting to als have contour as a generic function?

Hello folks, i'm a R beginner and i want to put in a same plot both contour lines and persp plot. For example, fn<-function(x,y){sin(x)+2*y} #this looks like a corrugated tin roof x<-seq(from=1,to=100,by=1) #generates a list of x values to sample y<-seq(from=1,to=100,by=1) #generates a list of y values to sample z<-outer(x,y,FUN=fn) #applies the funct. across the combos of x

I have this data set that both x & y are ordered vectors of length 600 & 700 respectively; z is a 600 by 700 matrix whose entry z[i,j] is either a missing value (indicated by 'NaN') or a real number between 0 and 1. The contour function contour(x,y,z) gives me a blank picture. I guess the reason is that most of z-entries are missing, only less than 1% are non missing.

Hello folks, I am a beginner R user. I have been able to make a 3D surface plot using 'persp'. The surface is made by a grid of lines emanating perpendicularly from each of the x and y axes at regular intervals. I can get rid of that grid by setting 'border=NA'. Can anyone suggest some ways to replace the grid with contour lines, to create a 3-dimensional contour map? Thanks

I've been thinking of adding the possibility of including "z" among the axes to be logged in image, contour, and persp. In the first two, it would only affect where the breaks were set if they are calculated automatically; it would have a bigger effect in persp. For example, image(x, y, z, log="z") would set 12 colours evenly spaced on a log scale of the z values.

I am using contour to draw contour lines onto a photo (jpeg) of a leaf on a white background. I have two problems: 1) The contour gets plotted at right angles to the jpeg image. I guess this is a problem of referencing the start and end points of the image matrix but I can't see how to over come this other than loading in a second image that has been rotated 90 degrees and plotting the

The following plot is a first approximation to what I need: *********************************** mu1 <- 0 mu2 <- 5 s <- 1 x <- seq(-2.5, 7.5, length = 41) y <- seq(-2.5, 2.5, length = 41) f <- function(x,y){ term1 <- 1/(2*pi*sqrt(s*s)) term2 <- -1/2 term3 <- (x - mu1)^2/s term4 <- (y - mu1)^2/s term5 <- (x - mu2)^2/s term1*(.5 * exp(term2*(term3 + term4)) + .5 *

Greetings, I have what I hope is a simple question. I would like to change my contour interval on the vis.gam( plot.type="contour") in the mgcv package. Is this a situation where I need to modify the function or is there a default value I can change? Thanks

The following matrix of normed likelihoods should give a smooth surface but instead gives a series of spikes in both persp and contour (the dim labels are the axes values). I know an algorithm cannot be infallible but it would be nice to have some parameters to control the smoothing. (It takes close to an hour to produce this matrix on a Pentium II 300mh. It was after that that it crashed with the

Hello, I created a 3d surface (persp) with some points overlaid on it, which is fine. Now I have a second set of z-values(x,y-values same as the first surface), which I would like to make visible on the same graph, however, not as a surface, but rather as coloured contour on the first surface, so that the resulting graph will consist of the original surface having the colour of the second

Hi, I draw a surface corresponding to bivariate density of independent variables (rho=0) using persp(). Then I add a contour line (i.e., circle in my case) at a particular density. Below is a minimal example of what I have so far. # Bivariate density dnorm2d <- function(x, y, rho = 0) { xoy = (x^2 - 2 * rho * x * y + y^2)/(2 * (1 - rho^2)) density = exp(-xoy)/(2 * pi * sqrt(1 - rho^2))

I would like to plot a large (401 x 101) matrix of numbers as a perspective plot (with the columns and row indices as the y and x components and the values in the matrix at the z values). I try to convert it to a data frame, but it always errors out with "Figure margins too large". What does this mean? How can I get the plot generated? Thanks -- -Alex Morgan Homepage:

Brian D Ripley writes: Interactive rotation of perspective plots would be a great boon, as would shading options for perspective plots, including contouring on such plots. I am envisioning a division into static and dynamic plots. The static version will concentrate on rendering as nice a picture as possible - anti-aliasing (if supported) arbitrary text rotation etc, whereas the dynamic

R-sters: I'm interested in keeping data plotted in persp to preserve the wireframe look, I'd just like to change one of the lines drawn (in either the x or y direction) into a different color so that it stands out. Or is there some way to add a line (say, via lines(), or abline()) to a persp() plot at the designated x or y that would follow the z surface contour? I could add a line

I'm a scheme and C user generally, I'm a bit wary of the large FORTRAN content of the R language but aside from that issue it seems nice and simple and easy to use. What I want to do is find some GPL software to replace gnuplot, and since R does all the calculating stuff that gnuplot does (probably R is faster though I haven't tested) plus R has quite decent plotting capabilities I

Dear all, I wonder about what could actually be possible with the function "contour": 1/ - the definition of contour lines is most often meaningless when the contours are drawn in areas where no real data points exist. It can however happen that irregular distributions lead to more or less irregular clouds of data points. Interpolations (eg: loess regression, GLM, etc...) are however
