In hexbin: Hexagonal Binning Routines

Add Loess Fit to Hexplot

Description

Fit a loess line using the hexagon centers of mass as the x and y coordinates and the cell counts as weights.

Usage

hexMA.loess(pMA, span = 0.4, col = "red", n = 200, ...)
hexVP.loess(hbin, hvp = NULL, span = 0.4, col = "red", n = 200, ...)

Arguments

hbin	an object of class hexbin, see hexbin.
hvp	A hexViewport object.
pMA	the list returned by plotMAhex.
span	the parameter alpha which controls the degree of smoothing.
col	line color for the loess fit.
n	number of points at which the fit should be evaluated.
...	Additional graphical parameter settings for the loess line fit; see gpar.

Value

Returns invisibly the object associated with the loess fit.
