Comprehensive Guide To Data Visualization - R

This document provides a guide to creating basic and advanced data visualizations in R. It outlines how to generate common plots like histograms, bar charts, box plots, and scatter plots using built-in R functions and libraries like ggplot2 and lattice. The guide also demonstrates creating more sophisticated visualizations such as hexbin plots, mosaic plots, heat maps, maps, 3D graphs, and interactive correlograms.

R Programming offers a set of inbuilt functions & libraries (such as


ggplot2, leaflet, lattice) to create visualizations & present data stories.
Below is a guide to create basic and advanced visualizations in R

BASIC VISUALIZATIONS
Histogram
library(RColorBrewer)

data(VADeaths)
par(mfrow=c(2,3))
hist(VADeaths,breaks=10, col=brewer.pal(3,"Set3"),main="Set3 3 colors")

Bar/ Line Chart

Line Chart
plot(AirPassengers,type="l") #Simple Line Plot

Bar Chart

barplot(iris$Petal.Length) #Creating simple Bar Graph


barplot(table(iris$Species,iris$Sepal.Length),col = brewer.pal(3,"Set1"))

barplot(iris$Petal.Length) #Creating simple Bar Graph


barplot(iris$Sepal.Length,col = brewer.pal(3,"Set1"))
barplot(table(iris$Species,iris$Sepal.Length),col = brewer.pal(3,"Set1")) #Stacked Plot

Box Plot ( including group-by option )

data(iris)
par(mfrow=c(2,2))
boxplot(iris$Sepal.Length,col="red")

boxplot(iris$Sepal.Length~iris$Species,col=topo.colors(3))

Scatter Plot (including 3D and other features)


#Simple Scatter Plot
plot(x=iris$Petal.Length)
#Multivariate Scatter Plot
plot(x=iris$Petal.Length,y=iris$Species)

plot(iris,col=brewer.pal(3,"Set1"))

pie(table(iris$Species))

Advanced Visualizations
Hexbin Binning
>library(hexbin)
>a=hexbin(diamonds$price,diamonds$carat,xbins=40)
>library(RColorBrewer)
>plot(a)

>library(RColorBrewer)
>rf <- colorRampPalette(rev(brewer.pal(40,'Set3')))
>hexbinplot(diamonds$price~diamonds$carat, data=diamonds, colramp=rf)

Mosaic Plot
> data(HairEyeColor)
> mosaicplot(HairEyeColor)

Heat Map
> heatmap(as.matrix(mtcars))

> image(as.matrix(b[2:7]))

Map Visualization
devtools::install_github("rstudio/leaflet")

library(magrittr)
library(leaflet)
m <- leaflet() %>%
addTiles() %>% # Add default OpenStreetMap map tiles
addMarkers(lng=77.2310, lat=28.6560, popup="food of chandni chowk")
m # Print the map

3D Graphs
>data(iris, package="datasets")
>scatter3d(Petal.Width~Petal.Length+Sepal.Length|Species, data=iris, fit="linear"
>residuals=TRUE, parallel=FALSE, bg="black", axis.scales=TRUE, grid=TRUE, ellipsoid=FALSE)

>attach(iris)# 3d scatterplot by factor level


>cloud(Sepal.Length~Sepal.Width*Petal.Length|Species, main="3D Scatterplot by Species")
>xyplot(Sepal.Width ~ Sepal.Length, iris, groups = iris$Species, pch= 20)

Correlogram (GUIs)
> cor(iris[1:4])
Sepal.Length Sepal.Width Petal.Length Petal.Width
Sepal.Length 1.0000000 -0.1175698 0.8717538 0.8179411
Sepal.Width -0.1175698 1.0000000 -0.4284401 -0.3661259
Petal.Length 0.8717538 -0.4284401 1.0000000 0.9628654
Petal.Width 0.8179411 -0.3661259 0.9628654 1.0000000
> corrgram(iris)
