similar to: Ternary plots

I'm in e-mail contact with a geochemist who maintains a well regarded geochemistry web site. He's drawing diagrams either with a Turbo Pascal program running in a DOS window or with Excel. I'm trying to persuade him that R would be a better choice. Something he's particularly keen on is ternary diagrams. I think he is talking about ternary phase diagrams, and if so, it looks as

Dear R-help, Reccently I've been working on sample size estimates for our forensic scientists and have to make the work accessible to them, preferably in some Windows based graphical form. The obvious choise was Tk via R, so I now have a couple of very nice, user friendly front ends for calculating betas and beta-binomials which run equally well under Windows and other systems (same code -

Colin, If your propose is to create a ternary plot with points and vectors, I think easier do this with graphics based plots instead of trellis based plots. Although, with little work you can do with trellis too. I gave you a reproducible code to put an arrow in a ternary plot. I use the function locator() to extract coordinates. The code is the following

Hi, I am trying to create a triangular plot to show the 'composition' of a set of items with three variables (historically the percent sand, silt and clay in soil). So far I have tried the 'soil texture triangle plot' in the package plotrix and the 'ternary or triangular plots' in the package cwhtool (cwhmisc). Both have strengths and weaknesses, but neither has a

Dear R-Users, I'd like to have some tips for a ternaryplot ("vcd"). I have this dataframe: a<- c (0.1, 0.5, 0.5, 0.6, 0.2, 0, 0, 0.004166667, 0.45) b<- c (0.75,0.5,0,0.1,0.2,0.951612903,0.918103448,0.7875,0.45) c<- c (0.15,0,0.5,0.3,0.6,0.048387097,0.081896552,0.208333333,0.1) d<- c (500,2324.90,2551.44,1244.50, 551.22,-644.20,-377.17,-100, 2493.04)

Hi all, I am drawing a ternary graph. Everything is fine with both ternaryplot (package vcd) and triangle.plot (package ade4), but I want to present scales in neither percents nor from 0 to 1 (this is actually the only option I found in both functions). I want the scales to be in a natural scale (from 0 to k, k being the number of objects). Is it at all possible? (Descriptions of both functions

Hi all, May be there is a plot which shows 3 variables in a triangle, their sum being constant. I have forgotten its name, and a search in the engine using "plot" did not help. Does anyone know of such a procedure in R or S? Thank you --christian Dr.sc.math.Christian W.

Dear All, I have a cluster object based on a dissimilarity matrix from about 1,100 cases and wish to know whether anyone can think of any tips to display some form of graphical output which would give some sense of the similarity between the cases. A standard form of dendrogram would be fine, but with so many cases the dendrogram on the standard devices (R-2.20 on NT4) is very compact

I need to plot multiple sets of data, on one Ternary plot (from the VCD package). Since they all need to be formatted differently, I can't just coerce them into one matrix, I need three separate calls. Is there a way to do this?

Hello I have a data base consisting of soil parameters, and tree species densities. The vcd (visualizing categorical data) package includes the ternaryplot function which plots the gravitation center of 3 prameters. I'd like to find a similar function for use with continuous data rather than categorical. Does anyone know of a function suitable for this objective? Thanks Steve

I need help for one program. It is about Gauss distribution. I do not know how can I make this program in C++. Exactly I must make this, that it can calculate a probability for value of variable z in interval (z1,z2) It is surface under normal distribution line. Please if there is anybody who can help me, I will be glad so. One student zdenko.zovko at tel.net.ba -------------- next part

I wonder if anyone out there has written a routine to solve the simple linear calibration problem? - fit regression of y vs x - estimate the value x0 (with 95% CI) that gives y0 Thanks for any help.

A rather strange situation here and I've not found the source of the problem. The point is to print a ternary plot matrix of compositional data with ellipses enclosing 95% of the variance in each plot. The ellipses display on the monitor, dev = x11cairo (see attached winters-x11cairo.pdf), but not when sent directly to a file, dev = pdf (see attached winters-pdf.pdf). Here's

Dear All, This is a question to sound out possibilities. I am with the Faculty of Natural and Agricultural Sciences at the University of Western Australia, representing a few of the more statistically minded in the faculty. Essentially, there have been problems in the past with software support, changing over statistical software, and paying lots of money for it. In R you have an advanced

I am investigating how well R/tcltk is supported on different system and I ran into the same problem as Christian Schulz reported on February 7, 2002. I am using [R] v1.4.1 on WinMe and ActiveTcl 8.3.2. Loading tcltk within Rgui works just fine and both demo(tkdensity) and demo(tkttest) works as expected. However, when I start R from my Cygwin terminal dyn.load() fails to load the library: % R

I apologize in advance for posting a question not related to R. I need references to papers that use multiple linear regression in an industrial application and also in a biological experiment. This is aimed to biologists/chemists (non-statisticans) so if anyone has written a brilliant paper where the use of multiple regression is important and also understandable to people with little
