ggalluvial: Alluvial Plots in 'ggplot2'

Description

Alluvial plots use variable-width ribbons and stacked bar plots to represent multi-dimensional or repeated-measures data with categorical or ordinal variables; see Riehmann, Hanfler, and Froehlich (2005) \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1109/INFVIS.2005.1532152")} and Rosvall and Bergstrom (2010) \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1371/journal.pone.0008694")}. Alluvial plots are statistical graphics in the sense of Wilkinson (2006) \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1007/0-387-28695-0")}; they share elements with Sankey diagrams and parallel sets plots but are uniquely determined from the data and a small set of parameters. This package extends Wickham's (2010) \Sexpr[results=rd]{tools:::Rd_expr_doi("10.1198/jcgs.2009.07098")} layered grammar of graphics to generate alluvial plots from tidy data.
