Creates dendrogram plot using ggplot.
Several functions for creating a dendrogram plot using ggplot2. The core process is to transform a dendrogram into a ggdend object using as.ggdend, and then plot it using ggplot. These two steps can be done in one command with either the function ggplot or ggdend.
The reason we want to have as.ggdend (and not only ggplot.dendrogram), is (1) so that you could create your own mapping of ggdend and, (2) since as.ggdend might be slow for large trees, it is probably better to be able to run it only once for such cases.
A ggdend class object is a list with 3 componants: segments, labels, nodes. Each one contains the graphical parameters from the original dendrogram, but in a tabular form that can be used by ggplot2+geom_segment+geom_text to create a dendrogram plot.
ggdend(...) as.ggdend(dend, ...) ## S3 method for class 'dendrogram' as.ggdend(dend, type = c("rectangle", "triangle"), edge.root = FALSE, ...) prepare.ggdend(data, ...) ## S3 method for class 'ggdend' ggplot( data, segments = TRUE, labels = TRUE, nodes = TRUE, horiz = FALSE, theme = theme_dendro(), offset_labels = 0, na.rm = TRUE, ... ) ## S3 method for class 'dendrogram' ggplot(data, ...) ## S3 method for class 'ggdend' print(x, ...)
... |
mostly ignored. |
dend |
a dendrogram tree (to be turned into a ggdend object) |
type |
The type of plot, indicating the shape of the dendrogram. "rectangle" will draw rectangular lines, while "triangle" will draw triangular lines. |
edge.root |
currently ignored. One day it might do the following: logical; if true, draw an edge to the root node. |
data, x |
a ggdend class object (passed to ggplot.dendrogram or print.ggdend). |
segments |
a logical (TRUE) if to plot the segments (branches). |
labels |
a logical (TRUE) if to plot the labels. |
nodes |
a logical (TRUE) if to plot the nodes (points). |
horiz |
a logical (TRUE) indicating if the dendrogram should be drawn horizontally or not. |
theme |
the ggplot2 theme to use (default is theme_dendro, can also be NULL for the default ggplot2 theme) |
offset_labels |
a numeric value to offset the labels from the leaves |
na.rm |
A logical (TRUE) to control removal of missing values. Passed to geom_line and geom_point |
prepare.ggdend
is used by plot.ggdend
to take the ggdend
object
and prepare it for plotting. This is because the defaults of various parameters in dendrogram's
are not always stored in the object itself, but are built-in into the plot.dendrogram function.
For example, the color of the labels is not (by default) specified in the dendrogram (only if we change it
from black to something else). Hence, when taking the object into a different plotting engine (say ggplot2), we
want to prepare the object by filling-in various defaults.
This function is autmatically invoked within the plot.ggdend
function. You would probably use
it only if you'd wish to build your own ggplot2 mapping.
as.ggdend
- returns an object of class ggdend which is a list with 3 componants: segments, labels, nodes.
Each one contains the graphical parameters from the original dendrogram, but in a tabular form that
can be used by ggplot2+geom_segment+geom_text to create a dendrogram plot.
prepare.ggdend
- a ggdend
object (after filling it with various default values)
ggplot.ggdend
- a ggplot object
Tal Galili, using code modified from Andrie de Vries
These are extended versions of the functions ggdendrogram, dendro_data (and the hidden dendrogram_data) from Andrie de Vries's ggdendro package. The motivation for this fork is the need to add more graphical parameters to the plotted tree. This required a strong mixter of functions from ggdendro and dendextend (to the point that it seemed better to just fork the code into its current form)
