Signal Processing

A set of signal processing functions originally written for 'Matlab' and 'Octave'. Includes filter generation utilities, filtering functions, resampling routines, and visualization of filter models. It also includes interpolation functions.

Visualisations for Generalized Additive Models

Extension of the 'mgcv' package, providing visual tools for Generalized Additive Models that exploit the additive structure of such models, scale to large data sets and can be used in conjunction with a wide range of response distributions. The focus is providing visual methods for better understanding the model output and for aiding model checking and development beyond simple exponential family regression. The graphical framework is based on the layering system provided by 'ggplot2'.

Visualising Sets of Ontological Terms

Create R plots visualising ontological terms and the relationships between them with various graphical options - Greene et al. 2017 .

Visualization of Functional Analysis Data

Implementation of multilayered visualizations for enhanced graphical representation of functional analysis data. It combines and integrates omics data derived from expression and functional annotation enrichment analyses. Its plotting functions have been developed with an hierarchical structure in mind: starting from a general overview to identify the most enriched categories (modified bar plot, bubble plot) to a more detailed one displaying different types of relevant information for the molecules in a given set of categories (circle plot, chord plot, cluster plot, Venn diagram, heatmap).

Visualizing Pedigrees with 'ggplot2' and 'plotly'

Provides plotting functions for visualizing pedigrees and family trees. The package complements a behavior genetics package 'BGmisc' [Garrison et al. (2024) ] by rendering pedigrees using the 'ggplot2' framework. Features include support for duplicated individuals, complex mating structures, integration with simulated pedigrees, and layout customization. Due to the impending deprecation of kinship2, version 1.0 incorporates the layout helper functions from kinship2. The pedigree alignment algorithms are adapted from 'kinship2' [Sinnwell et al. (2014) ]. We gratefully acknowledge the original authors: Jason Sinnwell, Terry Therneau, Daniel Schaid, and Elizabeth Atkinson for their foundational work.

Network Dynamic Temporal Visualizations

Renders dynamic network data from 'networkDynamic' objects as movies, interactive animations, or other representations of changing relational structures and attributes.

Data Sets from the History of Statistics and Data Visualization

The 'HistData' package provides a collection of small data sets that are interesting and important in the history of statistics and data visualization. The goal of the package is to make these available, both for instructional use and for historical research. Some of these present interesting challenges for graphics or analysis in R.

Self Calibrating Quantile-Quantile Plots for Visual Testing

Provides the function qqtest which incorporates uncertainty in its qqplot display(s) so that the user might have a better sense of the evidence against the specified distributional hypothesis. qqtest draws a quantile quantile plot for visually assessing whether the data come from a test distribution that has been defined in one of many ways. The vertical axis plots the data quantiles, the horizontal those of a test distribution. The default behaviour generates 1000 samples from the test distribution and overlays the plot with shaded pointwise interval estimates for the ordered quantiles from the test distribution. A small number of independently generated exemplar quantile plots can also be overlaid. Both the interval estimates and the exemplars provide different comparative information to assess the evidence provided by the qqplot for or against the hypothesis that the data come from the test distribution (default is normal or gaussian). Finally, a visual test of significance (a lineup plot) can also be displayed to test the null hypothesis that the data come from the test distribution.

Visualisation of Sequential Probability Distributions Using Fan Charts

Visualise sequential distributions using a range of plotting styles. Sequential distribution data can be input as either simulations or values corresponding to percentiles over time. Plots are added to existing graphic devices using the fan function. Users can choose from four different styles, including fan chart type plots, where a set of coloured polygon, with shadings corresponding to the percentile values are layered to represent different uncertainty levels.

Interactive Viewing of Spatial Data in R

Quickly and conveniently create interactive visualisations of spatial data with or without background maps. Attributes of displayed features are fully queryable via pop-up windows. Additional functionality includes methods to visualise true- and false-color raster images and bounding boxes.
