Description

Multiple Correspondence Analysis (MCA) is an extension of simple CA to analyse a data table containing more than two categorical variables. fviz_mca() provides ggplot2-based elegant visualization of MCA outputs from the R functions: MCA [in FactoMineR], acm [in ade4], and expOutput/epMCA [in ExPosition].

fviz_mca(X, ...)

Arguments

X

an object of class MCA [FactoMineR], acm [ade4] and expOutput/epMCA [ExPosition].

axes

a numeric vector of length 2 specifying the dimensions to be plotted.

geom

a text specifying the geometry to be used for the graph. Allowed values are the combination of c("point", "arrow", "text"). Use "point" (to show only points); "text" to show only labels; c("point", "text") or c("arrow", "text") to show arrows and texts. Using c("arrow", "text") is sensible only for the graph of variables.

geom.ind, geom.var

as geom but for individuals and variables, respectively. Default is geom.ind = c("point", "text), geom.var = c("point", "text").

repel

a boolean, whether to use ggrepel to avoid overplotting text labels or not.

habillage

an optional factor variable for coloring the observations by groups. Default value is "none". If X is an MCA object from FactoMineR package, habillage can also specify the index of the factor variable in the data.

palette

the color palette to be used for coloring or filling by groups. Allowed values include "grey" for grey color palettes; brewer palettes e.g. "RdBu", "Blues", ...; or custom color palette e.g. c("blue", "red"); and scientific journal palettes from ggsci R package, e.g.: "npg", "aaas", "lancet", "jco", "ucscgb", "uchicago", "simpsons" and "rickandmorty". Can be also a numeric vector of length(groups); in this case a basic color palette is created using the function palette.

addEllipses

logical value. If TRUE, draws ellipses around the individuals when habillage != "none".

col.ind, col.var

color for individuals and variables, respectively. Can be a continuous variable or a factor variable. Possible values include also : "cos2", "contrib", "coord", "x" or "y". In this case, the colors for individuals/variables are automatically controlled by their qualities ("cos2"), contributions ("contrib"), coordinates (x^2 + y^2 , "coord"), x values("x") or y values("y"). To use automatic coloring (by cos2, contrib, ....), make sure that habillage ="none".

col.ind.sup

color for supplementary individuals

alpha.ind, alpha.var

controls the transparency of individual and variable colors, respectively. The value can variate from 0 (total transparency) to 1 (no transparency). Default value is 1. Possible values include also : "cos2", "contrib", "coord", "x" or "y". In this case, the transparency for individual/variable colors are automatically controlled by their qualities ("cos2"), contributions ("contrib"), coordinates (x^2 + y^2 , "coord"), x values("x") or y values("y"). To use this, make sure that habillage ="none".

shape.ind, shape.var

point shapes of individuals and variables.

map

character string specifying the map type. Allowed options include: "symmetric", "rowprincipal", "colprincipal", "symbiplot", "rowgab", "colgab", "rowgreen" and "colgreen". See details

select.ind, select.var

a selection of individuals/variables to be drawn. Allowed values are NULL or a list containing the arguments name, cos2 or contrib:

  • name is a character vector containing individuals/variables to be drawn

  • cos2 if cos2 is in [0, 1], ex: 0.6, then individuals/variables with a cos2 > 0.6 are drawn. if cos2 > 1, ex: 5, then the top 5 individuals/variables with the highest cos2 are drawn.

  • contrib if contrib > 1, ex: 5, then the top 5 individuals/variables with the highest contrib are drawn

...

Additional arguments.

  • in fviz_mca_ind(), fviz_mca_var() and fviz_mca_cor(): Additional arguments are passed to the functions fviz() and ggpubr::ggpar().

  • in fviz_mca_biplot() and fviz_mca(): Additional arguments are passed to fviz_mca_ind() and fviz_mca_var().

choice

the graph to plot. Allowed values include: i) "var" and "mca.cor" for plotting the correlation between variables and principal dimensions; ii) "var.cat" for variable categories and iii) "quanti.sup" for the supplementary quantitative variables.

col.quanti.sup, col.quali.sup

a color for the quantitative/qualitative supplementary variables.

label

a text specifying the elements to be labelled. Default value is "all". Allowed values are "none" or the combination of c("ind", "ind.sup","var", "quali.sup", "quanti.sup"). "ind" can be used to label only active individuals. "ind.sup" is for supplementary individuals. "var" is for active variable categories. "quali.sup" is for supplementary qualitative variable categories. "quanti.sup" is for quantitative supplementary variables.

invisible

a text specifying the elements to be hidden on the plot. Default value is "none". Allowed values are the combination of c("ind", "ind.sup","var", "quali.sup", "quanti.sup").

arrows

Vector of two logicals specifying if the plot should contain points (FALSE, default) or arrows (TRUE). First value sets the rows and the second value sets the columns.

title

the title of the graph

Details

The default plot of MCA is a "symmetric" plot in which both rows and columns are in principal coordinates. In this situation, it's not possible to interpret the distance between row points and column points. To overcome this problem, the simplest way is to make an asymmetric plot. The argument "map" can be used to change the plot type. For more explanation, read the details section of fviz_ca documentation.

Value

a ggplot
