Featuring the lovely “spectral” palette from Colorbrewer. This really just serves as a reminder of how to do four things I frequently want to do: Make a heatmap of some kind of matrix, often a square correlation matrix Reorder a factor vari...

Designing Data Apps with R at Periscopic
Today's guest post comes to us from Andrew Winterman, Data Designer at data visualization company Persiscopic. He shares with us the process of using the R language and other tools to create an interactive data application for a client — ed. The Hewlett Foundation contacted us a few months ago because they were interested in exploring ways to visualize...
Tutorials for Learning Visualization in R
Today's guest post comes from Nathan Yau. Nathan runs FlowingData, a site on statistics and visualization, and is the author of Visualize This. Years ago, when I started FlowingData, the purpose of the blog was to catalog and think out loud about visualization, in its many varieties. In the beginning I was talking to myself for the most part,...
R Package Vignettes with Markdown
What is the best resource to learn an R package? Many R users know the almighty question mark ? in R. For example, type ?lm and you will see the documentation of the function lm. If you know nothing about a package, you can take a look at the HTML help...
Heatmap tables with ggplot2, sort-of
I wrote before about heatmap tables as a better way of producing frequency or other tables, with a solution which works nicely in latex. It is possible to do them much more easily in ggplot2, like this library(Hmisc) library(ggplot2) library(reshape) data(HairEyeColor) P=t(HairEyeColor) Pm=melt(P) ggfluctuation(Pm,type="heatmap")+geom_text(aes(label=Pm$value),colour="white")+ opts(axis.text.x=theme_text(size = 15),axis.text.y=theme_text(size = 15)) Note that ggfluctuation will also take

Community Detection in Networks with R
I mainly post this visualization because I think it’s pretty. It reminds a little of the work by the famous Dutch painter Mondrian. The complete matrix can be found here. The plot is a heatmap of an adjacency matrix generated by a weighted dir...

Color Palettes in RGB Space
Introduction I've recently been interested in how to communicate information using color. I don't know much about the field of Color Theory, but it's an interesting topic to me. The selection of color palettes, in particular, has been a topic I've been faced with lately. I downloaded 18 different sequential color palettes from Cynthia Brewer's
Zero Inflated Models and Generalized Linear Mixed Models with R.
