xyplot and dotplot with Matrix Variables to Plot Error Bars and Bands
Description
A utility function Cbind returns the first argument as a vector and
combines all other arguments into a matrix stored as an attribute called
"other". The arguments can be named (e.g.,
Cbind(pressure=y,ylow,yhigh)) or a label attribute may be pre-attached
to the first argument. In either case, the name or label of the first
argument is stored as an attribute "label" of the object returned by
Cbind. Storing other vectors as a matrix attribute facilitates plotting
error bars, etc., as trellis really wants the x- and y-variables to be
vectors, not matrices. If a single argument is given to Cbind and that
argument is a matrix with column dimnames, the first column is taken as the
main vector and remaining columns are taken as "other". A subscript
method for Cbind objects subscripts the other matrix along
with the main y vector.
The xYplot function is a substitute for xyplot that allows for
simulated multi-column y. It uses by default the panel.xYplot and
prepanel.xYplot functions to do the actual work. The method argument
passed to panel.xYplot from xYplot allows you to make error bars, the
upper-only or lower-only portions of error bars, alternating lower-only and
upper-only bars, bands, or filled bands. panel.xYplot decides how to
alternate upper and lower bars according to whether the median y value of
the current main data line is above the median y for all groups of
lines or not. If the median is above the overall median, only the upper
bar is drawn. For bands (but not 'filled bands'), any number of other
columns of y will be drawn as lines having the same thickness, color, and
type as the main data line. If plotting bars, bands, or filled bands and
only one additional column is specified for the response variable, that
column is taken as the half width of a precision interval for y, and the
lower and upper values are computed automatically as y plus or minus the
value of the additional column variable.
When a groups variable is present, panel.xYplot will create a function
in frame 0 (.GlobalEnv in R) called Key that when
invoked will draw a key describing the
groups labels, point symbols, and colors. By default, the key is outside
the graph. For S-Plus, if Key(locator(1)) is specified, the key will appear so that
its upper left corner is at the coordinates of the mouse click. For
R/Lattice the first two arguments of Key (x and y) are fractions
of the page, measured from the lower left corner, and the default
placement is at x=0.05, y=0.95. For R, an optional argument
to sKey, other, may contain a list of arguments to pass to draw.key (see
xyplot for a list of possible arguments, under
the key option).
When method="quantile" is specified, xYplot automatically groups the
x variable into intervals containing a target of nx observations each,
and within each x group computes three quantiles of y and plots these
as three lines. The mean x within each x group is taken as the
x-coordinate. This will make a useful empirical display for large
datasets in which scatterdiagrams are too busy to see patterns of central
tendency and variability. You can also specify a general function of a
data vector that returns a matrix of statistics for the method argument.
Arguments can be passed to that function via a list methodArgs. The
statistic in the first column should be the measure of central tendency.
Examples of useful method functions are those listed under the help file
for summary.formula such as smean.cl.normal.
xYplot can also produce bubble plots. This is done when
size is specified to xYplot. When size is used, a
function sKey is generated for drawing a key to the character
sizes. See the bubble plot example. size can also specify a
vector where the first character of each observation is used as the
plotting symbol, if rangeCex is set to a single cex
value. An optional argument to sKey, other, may contain
a list of arguments to pass to draw.key (see
xyplot for a list of possible arguments, under
the key option). See the bubble plot example.
Dotplot is a substitute for dotplot allowing for a matrix x-variable,
automatic superpositioning when groups is present, and creation of a
Key function. When the x-variable (created by Cbind to simulate a
matrix) contains a total of 3 columns, the first column specifies where the
dot is positioned, and the last 2 columns specify starting and ending
points for intervals. The intervals are shown using line type, width, and
color from the trellis plot.line list. By default, you will usually see a
darker line segment for the low and high values, with the dotted reference
line elsewhere. A good choice of the pch argument for such plots is 3
(plus sign) if you want to emphasize the interval more than the point
estimate. When the x-variable contains a total of 5 columns, the 2nd and
5th columns are treated as the 2nd and 3rd are treated above, and the 3rd
and 4th columns define an inner line segment that will have twice the
thickness of the outer segments. In addition, tick marks separate the outer
and inner segments. This type of display (an example of which appeared in
The Elements of Graphing Data by Cleveland) is very suitable for
displaying two confidence levels (e.g., 0.9 and 0.99) or the 0.05, 0.25,
0.75, 0.95 sample quantiles, for example. For this display, the central
point displays well with a default circle symbol.
setTrellis sets nice defaults for Trellis graphics, assuming that the
graphics device has already been opened if using postscript, etc. By
default, it sets panel strips to blank and reference dot lines to thickness
1 instead of the Trellis default of 2.
numericScale is a utility function that facilitates using
xYplot to
plot variables that are not considered to be numeric but which can readily
be converted to numeric using as.numeric(). numericScale
by default will keep the name of the input variable as a label
attribute for the new numeric variable.

setTrellis(strip.blank=TRUE, lty.dot.line=2, lwd.dot.line=1)
numericScale(x, label=NULL, ...)
Arguments
...
for Cbind ... is any number of additional numeric
vectors. Unless you are using Dotplot (which allows for either 2
or 4 "other" variables) or xYplot with method="bands",
vectors after the first two are ignored. If drawing bars and only one
extra variable is given in ..., upper and lower values are
computed as described above. If the second argument to Cbind is a
matrix, that matrix is stored in the "other" attribute and
arguments after the second are ignored. For bubble plots, name an
argument cex.
Also can be other arguments to pass to labcurve.
formula
a trellis formula consistent with xyplot or dotplot
x
x-axis variable. For numericScale x is any vector
such as as.numeric(x) returns a numeric vector suitable for x- or
y-coordinates.
y
a vector, or an object created by Cbind for xYplot.
y represents the main variable to plot, i.e., the variable used to
draw the main lines. For Dotplot the first argument to
Cbind will be the main x-axis variable.
data, subset, ylim, subscripts, groups, type, scales, panel, prepanel, xlab, ylab
see trellis.args. xlab and ylab get default values from
"label" attributes.
xscale
allows one to use the default scales but specify
only the x component of it for Dotplot
method
defaults to "bars" to draw error-bar type plots. See meaning of other
values above. method can be a function. Specifying method=quantile,
methodArgs=list(probs=c(.5,.25,.75)) is the same as specifying
method="quantile" without specifying probs.
methodArgs
a list containing optional arguments to be passed to the function specified
in method
label.curves
set to FALSE to suppress invocation of labcurve to label primary curves
where they are most separated or to draw a legend in an empty spot on the
panel. You can also set label.curves to a list of options to pass to
labcurve. These options can also be passed as ... to xYplot. See the
examples below.
abline
a list of arguments to pass to panel.abline for each panel, e.g.
list(a=0, b=1, col=3) to draw the line of identity using color
3. To make multiple calls to panel.abline, pass a list of
unnamed lists as abline, e.g., abline=list(list(h=0),list(v=1)).
probs
a vector of three quantiles with the quantile corresponding to the central
line listed first. By default probs=c(.5, .25, .75). You can also specify
probs through methodArgs=list(probs=...).
nx
number of target observations for each x group (see cut2 m argument).
nx defaults to the minimum of 40 and the number of points in the current
stratum divided by 4. Set nx=FALSE or nx=0 if x is already discrete and
requires no grouping.
cap
the half-width of horizontal end pieces for error bars, as a fraction of
the length of the x-axis
lty.bar
line type for bars
lwd, lty, pch, cex, font, col
see trellis.args. These are vectors when groups is present, and the
order of their elements corresponds to the different groups, regardless
of how many bands or bars are drawn. If you don't specify lty.bands, for
example, all band lines within each group will have the same lty.
lty.bands, lwd.bands, col.bands
used to allow lty, lwd, col to vary across the different band lines
for different groups. These parameters are vectors or lists whose
elements correspond to the added band lines (i.e., they ignore the central
line, whose line characteristics are defined by lty, lwd, col). For
example, suppose that 4 lines are drawn in addition to the central line.
Specifying lwd.bands=1:4 will cause line widths of 1:4 to be used for
every group, regardless of the value of lwd. To vary characteristics
over the groups use e.g. lwd.bands=list(rep(1,4), rep(2,4)) or
list(c(1,2,1,2), c(3,4,3,4)).
minor.ticks
a list with elements at and labels specifying positions
and labels for minor tick marks to be used on the x-axis of each panel,
if any.
sub
an optional subtitle
col.fill
used to override default colors used for the bands in method='filled
bands'. This is a vector when groups is present, and the order of the
elements corresponds to the different groups, regardless of how many
bands are drawn. The default colors for 'filled bands' are pastel colors
matching the default colors superpose.line$col (plot.line$col)
size
a vector the same length as x giving a variable whose values
are a linear function of the size of the symbol drawn. This is used
for example for bubble plots.
rangeCex
a vector of two values specifying the range in character sizes to use
for the size variable (lowest first, highest second).
size values are linearly translated to this range, based on the
observed range of size when x and y coordinates
are not missing. Specify a single numeric cex value for
rangeCex to use the first character of each observations's
size as the plotting symbol.
strip.blank
set to FALSE to not make the panel strip backgrounds blank
lty.dot.line
line type for dot plot reference lines (default = 1 for dotted; use 2 for
dotted)
lwd.dot.line
line thickness for reference lines for dot plots (default = 1)
label
a scalar character string to be used as a variable label after
numericScale converts the
variable to numeric form
Details
Unlike xyplot, xYplot senses the presence of a groups variable and
automatically invokes panel.superpose instead of panel.xyplot. The same
is true for Dotplot vs. dotplot.
Value
Cbind returns a matrix with attributes. Other functions return standard
trellis results.
Side Effects
plots, and panel.xYplot may create temporary Key and
sKey functions in the session frame.

xyplot and dotplot with Matrix Variables to Plot Error Bars and Bands
Description
A utility function Cbind returns the first argument as a vector and
combines all other arguments into a matrix stored as an attribute called
"other". The arguments can be named (e.g.,
Cbind(pressure=y,ylow,yhigh)) or a label attribute may be pre-attached
to the first argument. In either case, the name or label of the first
argument is stored as an attribute "label" of the object returned by
Cbind. Storing other vectors as a matrix attribute facilitates plotting
error bars, etc., as trellis really wants the x- and y-variables to be
vectors, not matrices. If a single argument is given to Cbind and that
argument is a matrix with column dimnames, the first column is taken as the
main vector and remaining columns are taken as "other". A subscript
method for Cbind objects subscripts the other matrix along
with the main y vector.
The xYplot function is a substitute for xyplot that allows for
simulated multi-column y. It uses by default the panel.xYplot and
prepanel.xYplot functions to do the actual work. The method argument
passed to panel.xYplot from xYplot allows you to make error bars, the
upper-only or lower-only portions of error bars, alternating lower-only and
upper-only bars, bands, or filled bands. panel.xYplot decides how to
alternate upper and lower bars according to whether the median y value of
the current main data line is above the median y for all groups of
lines or not. If the median is above the overall median, only the upper
bar is drawn. For bands (but not 'filled bands'), any number of other
columns of y will be drawn as lines having the same thickness, color, and
type as the main data line. If plotting bars, bands, or filled bands and
only one additional column is specified for the response variable, that
column is taken as the half width of a precision interval for y, and the
lower and upper values are computed automatically as y plus or minus the
value of the additional column variable.
When a groups variable is present, panel.xYplot will create a function
in frame 0 (.GlobalEnv in R) called Key that when
invoked will draw a key describing the
groups labels, point symbols, and colors. By default, the key is outside
the graph. For S-Plus, if Key(locator(1)) is specified, the key will appear so that
its upper left corner is at the coordinates of the mouse click. For
R/Lattice the first two arguments of Key (x and y) are fractions
of the page, measured from the lower left corner, and the default
placement is at x=0.05, y=0.95. For R, an optional argument
to sKey, other, may contain a list of arguments to pass to draw.key (see
xyplot for a list of possible arguments, under
the key option).
When method="quantile" is specified, xYplot automatically groups the
x variable into intervals containing a target of nx observations each,
and within each x group computes three quantiles of y and plots these
as three lines. The mean x within each x group is taken as the
x-coordinate. This will make a useful empirical display for large
datasets in which scatterdiagrams are too busy to see patterns of central
tendency and variability. You can also specify a general function of a
data vector that returns a matrix of statistics for the method argument.
Arguments can be passed to that function via a list methodArgs. The
statistic in the first column should be the measure of central tendency.
Examples of useful method functions are those listed under the help file
for summary.formula such as smean.cl.normal.
xYplot can also produce bubble plots. This is done when
size is specified to xYplot. When size is used, a
function sKey is generated for drawing a key to the character
sizes. See the bubble plot example. size can also specify a
vector where the first character of each observation is used as the
plotting symbol, if rangeCex is set to a single cex
value. An optional argument to sKey, other, may contain
a list of arguments to pass to draw.key (see
xyplot for a list of possible arguments, under
the key option). See the bubble plot example.
Dotplot is a substitute for dotplot allowing for a matrix x-variable,
automatic superpositioning when groups is present, and creation of a
Key function. When the x-variable (created by Cbind to simulate a
matrix) contains a total of 3 columns, the first column specifies where the
dot is positioned, and the last 2 columns specify starting and ending
points for intervals. The intervals are shown using line type, width, and
color from the trellis plot.line list. By default, you will usually see a
darker line segment for the low and high values, with the dotted reference
line elsewhere. A good choice of the pch argument for such plots is 3
(plus sign) if you want to emphasize the interval more than the point
estimate. When the x-variable contains a total of 5 columns, the 2nd and
5th columns are treated as the 2nd and 3rd are treated above, and the 3rd
and 4th columns define an inner line segment that will have twice the
thickness of the outer segments. In addition, tick marks separate the outer
and inner segments. This type of display (an example of which appeared in
The Elements of Graphing Data by Cleveland) is very suitable for
displaying two confidence levels (e.g., 0.9 and 0.99) or the 0.05, 0.25,
0.75, 0.95 sample quantiles, for example. For this display, the central
point displays well with a default circle symbol.
setTrellis sets nice defaults for Trellis graphics, assuming that the
graphics device has already been opened if using postscript, etc. By
default, it sets panel strips to blank and reference dot lines to thickness
1 instead of the Trellis default of 2.
numericScale is a utility function that facilitates using
xYplot to
plot variables that are not considered to be numeric but which can readily
be converted to numeric using as.numeric(). numericScale
by default will keep the name of the input variable as a label
attribute for the new numeric variable.
Usage

Details
Unlike xyplot, xYplot senses the presence of a groups variable and
automatically invokes panel.superpose instead of panel.xyplot. The same
is true for Dotplot vs. dotplot.
Value
Cbind returns a matrix with attributes. Other functions return standard
trellis results.
Side Effects
plots, and panel.xYplot may create temporary Key and
sKey functions in the session frame.
