Visualizations of Distributions and Uncertainty

Provides primitives for visualizing distributions using 'ggplot2' that are particularly tuned for visualizing uncertainty in either a frequentist or Bayesian mode. Both analytical distributions (such as frequentist confidence distributions or Bayesian priors) and distributions represented as samples (such as bootstrap distributions or Bayesian posterior samples) are easily visualized. Visualization primitives include but are not limited to: points with multiple uncertainty intervals, eye plots (Spiegelhalter D., 1999) < https://ideas.repec.org/a/bla/jorssa/v162y1999i1p45-58.html>, density plots, gradient plots, dot plots (Wilkinson L., 1999) , quantile dot plots (Kay M., Kola T., Hullman J., Munson S., 2016) , complementary cumulative distribution function barplots (Fernandes M., Walls L., Munson S., Hullman J., Kay M., 2018) , and fit curves with multiple uncertainty ribbons.

Visualizations of Paired Comparisons

Convert a logical vector or a vector of p-values or a correlation, difference, or distance matrix into a display identifying the pairs for which the differences were not significantly different. Designed for use in conjunction with the output of functions like TukeyHSD, dist (stats), simint, simtest, csimint, csimtest (multcomp), friedmanmc, kruskalmc (pgirmess).

Spatial Visualization with ggplot2

A collection of functions to visualize spatial data and models on top of static maps from various online sources (e.g Google Maps and Stamen Maps). It includes tools common to those tasks, including functions for geolocation and routing.

Classification and Visualization

Miscellaneous functions for classification and visualization, e.g. regularized discriminant analysis, sknn() kernel-density naive Bayes, an interface to 'svmlight' and stepclass() wrapper variable selection for supervised classification, partimat() visualization of classification rules and shardsplot() of cluster results as well as kmodes() clustering for categorical data, corclust() variable clustering, variable extraction from different variable clustering models and weight of evidence preprocessing.

Extract and Visualize the Results of Multivariate Data Analyses

Provides easy-to-use functions to extract and visualize the output of multivariate data analyses, including 'PCA' (Principal Component Analysis), 'CA' (Correspondence Analysis), 'MCA' (Multiple Correspondence Analysis), 'FAMD' (Factor Analysis of Mixed Data), 'MFA' (Multiple Factor Analysis), and 'HMFA' (Hierarchical Multiple Factor Analysis) from different R packages. It also includes helpers for simplifying clustering analysis workflows and provides 'ggplot2'-based data visualization.

Graph Plotting Methods, Psychometric Data Visualization and Graphical Model Estimation

Fork of qgraph - Weighted network visualization and analysis, as well as Gaussian graphical model computation. See Epskamp et al. (2012) .

Manipulate and Visualize VCF Data

Facilitates easy manipulation of variant call format (VCF) data. Functions are provided to rapidly read from and write to VCF files. Once VCF data is read into R a parser function extracts matrices of data. This information can then be used for quality control or other purposes. Additional functions provide visualization of genomic data. Once processing is complete data may be written to a VCF file (*.vcf.gz). It also may be converted into other popular R objects (e.g., genlight, DNAbin). VcfR provides a link between VCF data and familiar R software.

Visualization Methods for Raster Data

Methods for enhanced visualization and interaction with raster data. It implements visualization methods for quantitative data and categorical data, both for univariate and multivariate rasters. It also provides methods to display spatiotemporal rasters, and vector fields. See the website for examples.

Visualization and Imputation of Missing Values

Provides methods for imputation and visualization of missing values. It includes graphical tools to explore the amount, structure and patterns of missing and/or imputed values, supporting exploratory data analysis and helping to investigate potential missingness mechanisms (details in Alfons, Templ and Filzmoser, . The quality of imputations can be assessed visually using a wide range of univariate, bivariate and multivariate plots. The package further provides several imputation methods, including efficient implementations of k-nearest neighbour and hot-deck imputation (Kowarik and Templ 2013, , iterative robust model-based multiple imputation (Templ 2011, ; Templ 2023, ), and machine learning–based approaches such as robust GAM-based multiple imputation (Templ 2024, ) as well as gradient boosting (XGBoost) and transformer-based methods (Niederhametner et al., ). General background and practical guidance on imputation are provided in the Springer book by Templ (2023) .

Visualization of a Correlation Matrix using 'ggplot2'

The 'ggcorrplot' package can be used to visualize easily a correlation matrix using 'ggplot2'. It provides a solution for reordering the correlation matrix and displays the significance level on the plot. It also includes a function for computing a matrix of correlation p-values.
