Arguments

df

An object saved from running stylo on a corpus

viz

A choice of visualizations, either "pca" for principal components analysis or "hc" for hierarchical clustering; alternatively, using "PCR", "PCV", or "CA"—all inherited from stylo—will reset a number of defaults.

features

A vector containing a selection of features to consider for analysis. This option is useful for replicating a previous analysis.

num.features

The number of features to be used for an analysis. By default, stylo's settings are used, but it is easy here limit the number to a smaller set, ordered by frequency

top.loadings

The number of features to show as vectors in a principal components analysis. By default, loadings are not shown unless stylo's setting for pca.visual.flavour is set to "loadings"; at this time, it defaults to the full number of features. It's probably most revealing to choose a smaller number, so that only the most significant features are plotted.

select.loadings

A list element, with items indicating either the nearest location of a selected feature or the names of these features. The location can be shown in three ways: 1. with coordinates in the PCA space, e.g. c(1,2); 2. as the number of a category from which to derive an average location, e.g. 4; 3. as the name of a category or some other element of the original text's filename from which to derive an average location, e.g. "hamilton". The name of a feature is the fourth option: 4. using a call with the word function; for example, to show the word "undershirt," the list item would be call("word", "undershirt"). Multiple types of items can be combined in one list: select.loadings = list(c(1,2), 4, "hamilton", call("word", "undershirt")).

pc.x

Identifies the principal component to be placed on the X-axis. Defaults to 1.

pc.y

Identifies the principal component to be placed on the Y-axis. Defaults to 2.

title

The title that will go on the top of a chart. This value is inherited from stylo where possible. To remove a title, set it to NULL or to an empty set "".

caption

Defaults to FALSE, except with certain viz settings. Change to toggle metadata at the bottom of a visualization.

count.labels

Toggle (TRUE / FALSE) to show or hide counting numbers at the beginning of labels on a dendrogram. Useful for manually setting a highlight.box when constructing a plot, but probably not ideal for the final version of a dendrogram. Defaults to FALSE

legend

Show or hide the legend with TRUE or FALSE.

black

Cast the color of one category (defined by its number) as black. This setting is ideal to contrast a group for printing in black and white.

highlight

Highlight a category (defined by its number) by drawing around its elements on the visualization. In a principal components analysis, multiple circular highlights are available to contrast sets; on a dendrogram, only one category can be highlighted with a box.

labeling

Defines how to label items: if setting a character vector, define one string for each item in df; if setting a numeric vector (e.g, 1 or 2), set it to the desired element (identified via stylo's use of underscores in filenames).

classing

The class or category for each item in df; if not set, it defaults to the first element before an underscore in the filename of items in the original corpus. Stylo2gg uses classing to distinguish items by color and shape.

shapes

Defaults to FALSE unless labeling is defined. Change to toggle shapes on the visualization instead of (or in addition to) text labels. This is useful for printing in black and white, but it's also helpful to distinguish among similar colors.

invert.x

Defaults to FALSE. Change to invert the horizontal orientation in a principal components analysis in order to approximate some ideal visualization. (I don't think this actually changes any understanding of the data.)

invert.y

Defaults to FALSE. Change to invert the vertical orientation in a principal components analysis in order to approximate some ideal visualization. (I don't think this actually changes any understanding of the data.)

scaling

Toggle the option to scale features before running a principal components analysis. Defaults to FALSE, except for viz = "PCR"; for all other principal components settings, the default is first to normalize features by z scores, which makes scaling less useful.

distance.measure

The formula used for distance in hierarchical clustering. Defaults to "delta" to use Burrows's formula of Manhattan distance from normalized z-scores, but it might also be reasonable here to call "euclidean" or some other setting, imported from stylo.

linkage

The linkage to be used for cluster analysis. Defaults to "ward.D", but "complete" might also be a reasonable setting. Options include all those built into R.

horiz

Set the rotation of the dendrogram in a hierarchical cluster analysis; defaults to TRUE

axis.labels

Defaults to FALSE except when viz = "CA". Change to TRUE to show a distance axis for the dendrogram in a cluster analysis.

highlight.nudge

On a highlighted dendrogram, optionally define some extra space when a box overlaps the edge of a label.

highlight.single

Toggle (TRUE/FALSE) to determine whether a dendrogram's highlight should draw a single box for all of the items or individual boxes for each cluster. When using highlight, this setting will default to TRUE; when using highlight.box, it will default too FALSE.

show.zero

Toggle (TRUE / FALSE) for leaving space below the lowest distance to indicate zero

highlight.box

On a dendrogram, highlight items indicated by their item numbers (from the bottom on a horizontal dendrogram, from the left on a vertical dendrogram); it might be helpful to toggle the count.labels parameter to TRUE to avoid having to count large data sets.

withholding

Specify a class or classes of texts to withhold from underlying principal components analysis before these texts are then projected into that space.

loadings.spacer

The spacer used to replace spaces in loading words, used for multiple-word n-grams. Define it as a quoted string. Defaults to "_".

loadings.line.color

A string defining the lines leading to loading words. Defaults to lightgray.

loadings.word.color

A string defining the color used to display loading words. Defaults to darkgray.

loadings.upper

Toggle (TRUE / FALSE) to convert loadings into uppercase or to leave them alone. The default is FALSE, keeping them unconverted.

plaintext

Toggle (TRUE / FALSE) to show text labels as geom_text() layers (the default) or as geom_label() layers (when switched to FALSE.

Details

Because stylo2gg builds on ggplot2, almost all commands available to that package should work here as well, using the plus-sign syntax documented by that package.

Examples

## Not run: 
my_data <- stylo()
my_data %>% stylo2gg()

# Move the legend
my_data %>% stylo2gg() +
  theme(legend.position = "bottom")

## End(Not run)
