Summarise y values at unique/binned x
stat_summary()
operates on unique x
or y
; stat_summary_bin()
operates on binned x
or y
. They are more flexible versions of
stat_bin()
: instead of just counting, they can compute any
aggregate.

mapping |
Set of aesthetic mappings created by |
data |
The data to be displayed in this layer. There are three options: If A A |
geom |
Use to override the default connection between
|
position |
Position adjustment, either as a string, or the result of a call to a position adjustment function. |
... |
Other arguments passed on to |
fun.data |
A function that is given the complete data and should
return a data frame with variables |
fun.min, fun, fun.max |
Alternatively, supply three individual functions that are each passed a vector of values and should return a single number. |
fun.args |
Optional additional arguments passed on to the functions. |
bins |
Number of bins. Overridden by |
binwidth |
The width of the bins. Can be specified as a numeric value
or as a function that calculates width from unscaled x. Here, "unscaled x"
refers to the original x values in the data, before application of any
scale transformation. When specifying a function along with a grouping
structure, the function will be called once per group.
The default is to use the number of bins in The bin width of a date variable is the number of days in each time; the bin width of a time variable is the number of seconds. |
breaks |
Alternatively, you can supply a numeric vector giving
the bin boundaries. Overrides |
na.rm |
If |
orientation |
The orientation of the layer. The default ( |
show.legend |
logical. Should this layer be included in the legends?
|
inherit.aes |
If |
fun.ymin, fun.y, fun.ymax |
Deprecated, use the versions specified above instead. |
This geom treats each axis differently and, thus, can thus have two orientations. Often the orientation is easy to deduce from a combination of the given mappings and the types of positional scales in use. Thus, ggplot2 will by default try to guess which orientation the layer should have. Under rare circumstances, the orientation is ambiguous and guessing may fail. In that case the orientation can be specified directly using the orientation
parameter, which can be either "x"
or "y"
. The value gives the axis that the geom should run along, "x"
being the default orientation you would expect for the geom.
stat_summary()
understands the following aesthetics (required aesthetics are in bold):
x
y
group
Learn more about setting these aesthetics in vignette("ggplot2-specs")
.
You can either supply summary functions individually (fun
,
fun.max
, fun.min
), or as a single function (fun.data
):
Complete summary function. Should take numeric vector as input and return data frame as output
min summary function (should take numeric vector and return single number)
main summary function (should take numeric vector and return single number)
max summary function (should take numeric vector and return single number)
A simple vector function is easiest to work with as you can return a single
number, but is somewhat less flexible. If your summary function computes
multiple values at once (e.g. min and max), use fun.data
.
fun.data
will recieve data as if it was oriented along the x-axis and
should return a data.frame that corresponds to that orientation. The layer
will take care of flipping the input and output if it is oriented along the
y-axis.
If no aggregation functions are supplied, will default to
mean_se()
.
geom_errorbar()
, geom_pointrange()
,
geom_linerange()
, geom_crossbar()
for geoms to
display summarised data
