Hi, is there a way to take a data frame with 100+ columns and large data set to do efficient exploratory analysis in R with pairs? I find using pairs on the whole matrix is slow and the resulting matrix is tiny. Also the variable of interest for me is a binary var Y or N . Is there an efficient way to graphically view many variable relationships that does not look teeny ? I could do

This email isn't asking for assistance, but I thought R-help readers would find it interesting. This week we offered a half-day introduction to R for researchers at Augsburg University. The response was astonishing. Although Augsburg has no medical faculty and no engineers, there was far too much demand, with interest from every faculty (barring theology, "for one small

I have code like this: - #----------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------ x=scan() 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 3 4 y=scan() 1 1 1 2 2 1 3 4 5 plot(x,y) identify(0,1,3) #Allows me to select manually to identify co-ordinate (0,1) as being duplicated 3 times identify(0,2,2) #Allows me to select manually to identify co-ordinate

Hello all, I'm trying to graph a scatterplot of a large (5,000 x,y coordinates) of data with the caveat that many of the data points overlap with each other (share the same x AND y coordinates). In using the usual "plot" command, > plot(education, xlab="etc", ylab="etc") it seems that the overlap of points is not shown in the graph. Namely, there are

Hi All, I'm dealing with binary response data for the first time, and I'm confused about what kind of graphics I could explore in order to pick relevant predictors and their relation with response variable. I have 8-10 continuous predictors and 4-5 categorical predictors. Can anyone suggest what kind of graphics I can explore to see how predictors behave w.r.t. response variable... Any

There have been several constructive responses to John Sorkin's comment, but none of them are fully satisfactory. Of course, if you know the name of the function you are looking for, there are lots of ways to search — provided that everyone calls the function by a name that matches your search. If you think there might be a function, but you don't know the name, then you have

Hello Tal, You asked *When is it helpful to use interactive plots? Either for data exploration (for ourselves) and data presentation (for a "client")?* My answer: It's helpful for checking data quality, for exploration with and without "clients", for checking results, and for data presenting. Notes: (1) It's difficult to explain interactive data visualization in

Hello I need to plot a histogram, but insted of using bars, I'd like to plot the data points. I've been doing it like this so far: h <- hist(x, plot = F) plot(y = x$counts / sum(x$counts), x = x$breaks[2:length(x$breaks)], type = "p", log = "xy") Sometimes I want to have a look at the "raw" data (avoiding any kind of binning). When x

Hello. I am attempting to duplicate a negative binomial regression in R.

Hi, I find that a typical workflow for me looks something like this: 1) import some data from files 2) mess around with the data for a while 3) mess around with plotting for a while 4) get a plot or analysis that looks good 5) go back through my history to make a list of the shortest command sequence to recreate the plot or analysis 6) send out that sequence to colleagues, along with the

I've been a R-user for quite some time. The graphic on the home page looks a bit in need of polish so I applied some antialiased transformations that Peter Dalgaard has previously posted to R-help for improving graphic quality. I had to change the margins a bit, but here is what it looks like: http://www.broad.mit.edu/~finnyk/Rhome.jpg Personally, I think it looks much better. Because

I require some assistance with JGR, but following the mailing list link from http://jgr.markushelbig.org/FAQ.html leads me to http://mailman.rz.uni-augsburg.de/mailman/listinfo/stats-rosuda-devel which responds with No such list stats-rosuda-devel I was previously subscribed to this mailing list and want to resubscribe, but where has it gone?

Hi, all, I would like to know if there is any gui interface out there (academic or commercial) that allows one to edit R-language generated graphs (e.g positioning x axis labels.) It would be nice to have something like the user interface of Igor or Origin. I have already used JGR and R-gui. These are good, but they don't allow one to easily edit graphs. I have also tried

Hi everyone, is there a way/package in R that would allow me to select a group of points from a scatterplot by drawing a circle around them or some such? I can use 'identify' to pick individual points, but that gets tedious if one has more than 10-20 spots. I can easily select spots within a rectangle defined by picking points using identify... but a simple rectangle sometimes will

R has spread far and wide with great success. It is not only used extensively in universities, but also apparently in governmental organisations and in industry. As the recent discussion of R's Pros and Cons shows, there are many reasons for this. It would be interesting to know just how widely R is used, where it is used most (and where least or not at all). Does anyone have a

Hi folks, I was wondering if anyone could confirm/deny whether there exists any kind of package to facilitate zoomable graphs with multiple plots (eg, plot(..) and then points(..)). I've tried zoom from IDPmisc, and iplot from the iplot and iplot extreme packages, but as far I can tell, neither can handle the task. Does anyone know anything else that might work? Or generally know
