Ellipsoid: Draw an Ellipsoid in an rgl Scene

In friendly/heplots: Visualizing Hypothesis Tests in Multivariate Linear Models

Draw an Ellipsoid in an rgl Scene

Description

This is an experimental function designed to separate internal code in link{heplot3d}.

Usage

Ellipsoid(x, ...)

## S3 method for class 'data.frame'
Ellipsoid(x, which = 1:3, method = c("classical", "mve", "mcd"), ...)

## Default S3 method:
Ellipsoid(
  x,
  center = c(0, 0, 0),
  which = 1:3,
  radius = 1,
  df = Inf,
  label = "",
  cex.label = 1.5,
  col = "pink",
  lwd = 1,
  segments = 40,
  shade = TRUE,
  alpha = 0.1,
  wire = TRUE,
  verbose = FALSE,
  warn.rank = FALSE,
  ...
)

Arguments

x	An object. In the default method the parameter x should be a square positive definite matrix at least 3x3 in size. It will be treated as the correlation or covariance of a multivariate normal distribution. For the data.frame method, it should be a numeric data frame with at least 3 columns.
...	Other arguments
which	This parameter selects which variables from the object will be plotted. The default is the first 3.
method	the covariance method to be used: classical product-moment ("classical"), or minimum volume ellipsoid ("mve"), or minimum covariance determinant ("mcd"
center	center of the ellipsoid, a vector of length 3, typically the mean vector of data
radius	size of the ellipsoid
df	degrees of freedom associated with the covariance matrix, used to calculate the appropriate F statistic
label	label for the ellipsoid
cex.label	text size of label
col	color of the ellipsoid
lwd	line with for the wire-frame version
segments	number of segments composing each ellipsoid; defaults to 40.
shade	logical; should the ellipsoid be smoothly shaded?
alpha	transparency of the shaded ellipsoid
wire	logical; should the ellipsoid be drawn as a wire frame?
verbose	logical; for debugging
warn.rank	logical; warn if the ellipsoid is less than rank 3?

Value

returns the bounding box of the ellipsoid invisibly; otherwise used for it's side effect of drawing the ellipsoid
