In plot3D: Plotting Multi-Dimensional Data

Extended image and contour plots for 2-D (and 3-D) data.

Description

image2D extends R's image function. Input can be a matrix (2-D) or an array (3-D) or a list.

contour2D extends R's contour function.

Usage

image2D (z, ...)
contour2D (z, x = seq(0, 1, length.out = nrow(z)),
         y = seq(0, 1, length.out = ncol(z)), ...,
         col = NULL, NAcol = NULL, 
         colkey = NULL, resfac = 1,
         clab = NULL, add = FALSE, plot = TRUE)

## S3 method for class 'matrix'
image2D(z, x = seq(0, 1, length.out = nrow(z)), 
               y = seq(0, 1, length.out = ncol(z)), colvar = z, ...,
               col = NULL, NAcol = "white", breaks = NULL,
               border = NA, facets = TRUE, contour = FALSE, 
               colkey = NULL, resfac = 1, clab = NULL, 
               lighting = FALSE, shade = NA, ltheta = -135, lphi = 0,
               theta = 0, rasterImage = FALSE,
               add = FALSE, plot = TRUE) 

## S3 method for class 'array'
image2D(z, margin = c(1, 2), subset, ask = NULL, ...) 
## S3 method for class 'list'
image2D(z, ...) 

Arguments

z	Matrix (2-D) or array (3-D) or a list with matrices or arrays, with z-values. By default colvar is equal to z, hence z also defines the variable used to color the image. Only when shade or lighting is toggled on does it make sense to use z different from colvar.
x, y	Vectors or matrix with x and y values. If a vector x should be of length equal to nrow(z) and y should be of length equal to ncol(z). If a matrix (only for image2D), they should have the same dimension as z or be of dimension = dim(z)+1.
colvar	Only used when shade or lighting is toggled on. The variable used to color the image.
col	Color palette to be used for the image function or for the contours. See details.
NAcol	Color to be used for NA values of z; for image2D, the default is “white”, for contour2D, the default is to do nothing.
breaks	a set of finite numeric breakpoints for the colors; must have one more breakpoint than color and be in increasing order. Unsorted vectors will be sorted, with a warning.
contour	If TRUE, then a contour plot will be added to the image plot, unless x, y are a matrix. Also allowed is to pass a list with arguments for the contour function.
colkey	A logical, NULL (default), or a list with parameters for the color key (legend). List parameters should be one of side, plot, length, width, dist, shift, addlines, col.clab, cex.clab, side.clab, line.clab, adj.clab, font.clab and the axis parameters at, labels, tick, line, pos, outer, font, lty, lwd, lwd.ticks, col.box, col.axis, col.ticks, hadj, padj, cex.axis, mgp, tck, tcl, las. The defaults for the parameters are side = 4, plot = TRUE, length = 1, width = 1, dist = 0, shift = 0, addlines = FALSE, col.clab = NULL, cex.clab = par("cex.lab"), side.clab = NULL, line.clab = NULL, adj.clab = NULL, font.clab = NULL) See colkey. The default is to draw the color key on side = 4, i.e. in the right margin. If colkey = NULL then a color key will be added only if col is a vector. Setting colkey = list(plot = FALSE) will create room for the color key without drawing it. if colkey = FALSE, no color key legend will be added.
clab	Only if colkey is not NULL or FALSE, the label to be written on top of the color key. The label will be written at the same level as the main title. To lower it, clab can be made a vector, with the first values empty strings.
resfac	Resolution factor, one value or a vector of two numbers, for the x and y- values respectively. A value > 1 will increase the resolution. For instance, if resfac equals 3 then for each adjacent pair of x- and y-values, z will be interpolated to two intermediary points. This uses simple linear interpolation. If resfac is one number then the resolution will be increased similarly in x and y-direction.
lighting	If not FALSE the facets will be illuminated, and colors may appear more bright. To switch on lighting, the argument lighting should be either set to TRUE (using default settings) or it can be a list with specifications of one of the following: ambient, diffuse, specular, exponent, sr and alpha. Will overrule shade not equal to NA. See examples in jet.col.
shade	the degree of shading of the surface facets. Values of shade close to one yield shading similar to a point light source model and values close to zero produce no shading. Values in the range 0.5 to 0.75 provide an approximation to daylight illumination. See persp.
ltheta, lphi	if finite values are specified for ltheta and lphi, the surface is shaded as though it was being illuminated from the direction specified by azimuth ltheta and colatitude lphi. See persp.
theta	The angle defining the azimuthal direction. Implemented for consistency with the other functions based on persp.
border	The color of the lines drawn around the surface facets. The default, NA, will disable the drawing of borders.
facets	If TRUE, then col denotes the color of the surface facets. If FALSE, then the surface facets are colored “white” and the border will be colored as specified by col. If NA then the facets will be transparent. It is usually faster to draw with facets = FALSE.
rasterImage	If TRUE, the function rasterImage will be used for plotting rather than image or polygon. This requires the x and y to be a vector with equally spaced elements. Note that by default, rasterImage linearly interpolates the image, so it will appear smoother.
add	Logical. If TRUE, then the points will be added to the current plot. If FALSE a new plot is started.
plot	Logical. If TRUE (default), a plot is created, otherwise (for 3D plots) the viewing transformation matrix is returned (as invisible).
margin	A vector giving the subscripts which the image function will be applied over. The image function will loop over the index that is not in margin. For instance, c(1, 2), indicates to plot rows(x) and columns(y) and to loop over index 3; c(2, 1) will do the same but the image will be transposed. margin should be a vector with two numbers inbetween 1, and 3.
ask	A logical; if TRUE, the user is asked before each plot, if NULL the user is only asked if more than one page of plots is necessary and the current graphics device is set interactive, see par(ask) and dev.interactive.
subset	Either a logical expression indicating over which elements to loop, or a vector or integers denoting the indices of the elements over which to loop. Missing values are taken as FALSE.
...	additional arguments passed to the plotting methods image, rasterImage, polygon and contour. alpha can be given a value inbetween 0 and 1 to make colors transparent. The arguments after ... must be matched exactly.

Details

image2D is an extension to the default image plot that has the possibility to add a color key and contourlines, and to increase the resolution in order to make smoother images. It also uses a different color scheme, it can deal with decreasing x- and y- values and x and y can be a matrix. In the latter case, the image will be drawn as a set of polygons; if x and y are a vector, either R-function image or rasterImage will be used.

image2D.array and image2D.list are versions that accept a 3 dimensional array respectively a list with z-matrices as their first argument to produce multiple plots.

For argument col of the image2D function, both NA and NULL are allowed, in which case the color will be white, and no color key will be drawn.

To set the ranges of the z-variable, both arguments zlim (as in image) and clim (as in the other plot3D functions) are accepted.

Upon returning from the image2D and contour2D functions, the figure coordinates are defined by the main figure (excluding the color key). Thus, one can safely add other plotting elements.

Value

Returns nothing.

Note

The first argument, z generally determines the color variable. For consistency with the other functions, another variable, colvar is also defined and set by default equal to z. colvar will only be used if shade or lighting are toggled on. In this case, z will be used to define the shading (orientation of each facet), while colvar will define the color.

When x and y is a vector, the function uses R-function image. This means that the x- and y- axis will extend the x- and y- values with half a grid cell.

In contrast, when x and y are a matrix, the axis will not extend the x- or y- values. See first example.
