'ggplot2' Based Publication Ready Plots

The 'ggplot2' package is excellent and flexible for elegant data visualization in R. However the default generated plots requires some formatting before we can send them for publication. Furthermore, to customize a 'ggplot', the syntax is opaque and this raises the level of difficulty for researchers with no advanced R programming skills. 'ggpubr' provides some easy-to-use functions for creating and customizing 'ggplot2'- based publication ready plots.

Visualizing Association Rules and Frequent Itemsets

Extends package 'arules' with various visualization techniques for association rules and itemsets. The package also includes several interactive visualizations for rule exploration. Michael Hahsler (2017) .

Some Useful Functions for Statistics and Visualization

Offers a range of utilities and functions for everyday programming tasks. 1.Data Manipulation. Such as grouping and merging, column splitting, and character expansion. 2.File Handling. Read and convert files in popular formats. 3.Plotting Assistance. Helpful utilities for generating color palettes, validating color formats, and adding transparency. 4.Statistical Analysis. Includes functions for pairwise comparisons and multiple testing corrections, enabling perform statistical analyses with ease. 5.Graph Plotting, Provides efficient tools for creating doughnut plot and multi-layered doughnut plot; Venn diagrams, including traditional Venn diagrams, upset plots, and flower plots; Simplified functions for creating stacked bar plots, or a box plot with alphabets group for multiple comparison group.

An Implementation of Grammar of Graphics for Graphs and Networks

The grammar of graphics as implemented in ggplot2 is a poor fit for graph and network visualizations due to its reliance on tabular data input. ggraph is an extension of the ggplot2 API tailored to graph visualizations and provides the same flexible approach to building up plots layer by layer.

Visualization using Graph Traversal

Improving graphics by ameliorating order effects, using Eulerian tours and Hamiltonian decompositions of graphs. References for the methods presented here are C.B. Hurley and R.W. Oldford (2010) and C.B. Hurley and R.W. Oldford (2011) .

Create Waffle Chart Visualizations

Square pie charts (a.k.a. waffle charts) can be used to communicate parts of a whole for categorical quantities. To emulate the percentage view of a pie chart, a 10x10 grid should be used with each square representing 1% of the total. Modern uses of waffle charts do not necessarily adhere to this rule and can be created with a grid of any rectangular shape. Best practices suggest keeping the number of categories small, just as should be done when creating pie charts. Tools are provided to create waffle charts as well as stitch them together, and to use glyphs for making isotype pictograms.

SHAP Visualizations

Visualizations for SHAP (SHapley Additive exPlanations), such as waterfall plots, force plots, various types of importance plots, dependence plots, and interaction plots. These plots act on a 'shapviz' object created from a matrix of SHAP values and a corresponding feature dataset. Wrappers for the R packages 'xgboost', 'lightgbm', 'fastshap', 'shapr', 'h2o', 'treeshap', 'DALEX', and 'kernelshap' are added for convenience. By separating visualization and computation, it is possible to display factor variables in graphs, even if the SHAP values are calculated by a model that requires numerical features. The plots are inspired by those provided by the 'shap' package in Python, but there is no dependency on it.

Display and Analyze ROC Curves

Tools for visualizing, smoothing and comparing receiver operating characteristic (ROC curves). (Partial) area under the curve (AUC) can be compared with statistical tests based on U-statistics or bootstrap. Confidence intervals can be computed for (p)AUC or ROC curves.

Graph Probability Distributions with User Supplied Parameters and Statistics

Graphs the pdf or pmf and highlights what area or probability is present in user defined locations. Visualize is able to provide lower tail, bounded, upper tail, and two tail calculations. Supports strict and equal to inequalities. Also provided on the graph is the mean and variance of the distribution.

Create Interactive Timeline Visualizations in R

Create rich and fully interactive timeline visualizations. Timelines can be included in Shiny apps or R markdown documents. 'timevis' includes an extensive API to manipulate a timeline after creation, and supports getting data out of the visualization into R. Based on the 'vis.js' Timeline JavaScript library.
