In vioplot: Violin Plot

Annotated Violin Plot

Description

Annotate violin plots with custom labels

Usage

add_labels(variable, categories, cex = par()$cex, col = par()$fg, height = 0.5)

Arguments

variable	continuous variable to to plot on y-axis (numeric or integer)
categories	discrete variable to break down groups (factor or string).
cex	size of text.
col	colour of text
height	adjust placement of text.

Examples

# box- vs violin-plot
par(mfrow=c(2,1))
mu<-2
si<-0.6
bimodal<-c(rnorm(1000,-mu,si),rnorm(1000,mu,si))
uniform<-runif(2000,-4,4)
normal<-rnorm(2000,0,3)

# annotate a violin plot
group <- rep(c("bimodal", "uniform", "normal"),
             sapply(list(bimodal, uniform, normal), length))
table(group)
vioplot(bimodal,uniform,normal)
add_labels(unlist(bimodal,uniform,normal), group, height = 3, cex = 0.8)

# boxplots are also supported
boxplot(bimodal,uniform,normal)
add_labels(unlist(bimodal,uniform,normal), group, height = 3, cex = 0.8)

       fill=c("lightgreen", "lightblue", "palevioletred"), cex = 0.6)
