In msfuji/geomsort: An Extension to 'ggplot2' for Sorted Plot of Data Points

geomsort

An ggplot2 extension for sorting data points to reduce overplotting. Data points are sorted with their y-coordinates, and horizontal variations are added to their locations to enhance visibility.

The motivation of this package is to facilitate drawing figures like Fig. 1 of the following paper.
