plot.colspace: Plot spectra in a colourspace

In pavo: Perceptual Analysis, Visualization and Organization of Spectral Colour Data

Plot spectra in a colourspace

Description

Plots reflectance spectra in the appropriate colourspace.

Usage

## S3 method for class 'colspace'
plot(x, ...)

Arguments

x

(required) an object of class colspace.

...

additional graphical options, which vary by modeled space. Refer to their individual documentation: diplot(): dichromat space triplot(): trichromat space tetraplot(): tetrahedral space catplot(): categorical space hexplot(): colour hexagon cocplot(): colour-opponent-coding space cieplot(): cie spaces segplot(): segment analysis space jndplot(): perceptual, 'noise corrected' space (for the results of jnd2xyz()) Also see par().

Value

A colourspace plot appropriate to the input data.

Examples

data(flowers)
data(sicalis)

# Dichromat
vis.flowers <- vismodel(flowers, visual = "canis")
di.flowers <- colspace(vis.flowers, space = "di")
plot(di.flowers)

# Colour hexagon
vis.flowers <- vismodel(flowers,
  visual = "apis", qcatch = "Ei", relative = FALSE,
  vonkries = TRUE, achromatic = "l", bkg = "green"
)
hex.flowers <- colspace(vis.flowers, space = "hexagon")
plot(hex.flowers, sectors = "coarse")

# Tetrahedron (static)
vis.sicalis <- vismodel(sicalis, visual = "avg.uv")
tcs.sicalis <- colspace(vis.sicalis, space = "tcs")
plot(tcs.sicalis)


# Tetrahedron (interactive)
vis.sicalis <- vismodel(sicalis, visual = "avg.uv")
tcs.sicalis <- colspace(vis.sicalis, space = "tcs")
tcsplot(tcs.sicalis, size = 0.005)

## Add points to interactive tetrahedron
patch <- rep(c("C", "T", "B"), 7)
tcs.crown <- subset(tcs.sicalis, "C")
tcs.breast <- subset(tcs.sicalis, "B")
tcsplot(tcs.crown, col = "blue")
tcspoints(tcs.breast, col = "red")

## Plot convex hull in interactive tetrahedron
tcsplot(tcs.sicalis, col = "blue", size = 0.005)
tcsvol(tcs.sicalis)
