wirePlot: 3D Plot

Source: R/3.3_Factorial_designs_Functions.R
wirePlot.Rd

Creates a wireframe diagram for an object of class facDesign.c.

Usage

wirePlot(
  x,
  y,
  z,
  data = NULL,
  xlim,
  ylim,
  zlim,
  main,
  xlab,
  ylab,
  sub,
  sub.a = TRUE,
  zlab,
  form = "fit",
  col = "Rainbow",
  steps,
  fun,
  plot = TRUE,
  show.scale = TRUE,
  n.scene = "scene"
)

Arguments

x

Name providing the Factor A for the plot.

y

Name providing the Factor B for the plot.

z

Name giving the Response variable.

data

Needs to be an object of class facDesign and contains the names of x, y, z.

xlim

Numeric vector of length 2: limits for the x-axis. If missing, limits are set automatically.

ylim

Numeric vector of length 2: limits for the y-axis. If missing, limits are set automatically.

zlim

Numeric vector of length 2: limits for the z-axis. If missing, limits are set automatically.

main

Character string: title of the plot.

xlab

Character string: label for the x-axis.

ylab

Character string: label for the y-axis.

sub

Character string: subtitle for the plot. Default is NULL.

sub.a

Logical value indicating whether to display the subtitle. Default is TRUE.

zlab

Character string: label for the z-axis.

form

Character string specifying the form of the surface to be plotted. Options include

  • `quadratic`

  • `full`

  • `interaction`

  • `linear`

  • `fit`

Default is `fit`.

col

Character string specifying the color palette to use for the plot (e.g., `Rainbow`, `Jet`, `Earth`, `Electric`). Default is `Rainbow`.

steps

Numeric value specifying the number of steps for the grid in the plot. Higher values result in a smoother surface.

fun

Optional function to be applied to the data before plotting.

plot

Logical value indicating whether to display the plot. Default is TRUE.

show.scale

Logical value indicating whether to display the color scale on the plot. Default is TRUE.

n.scene

Character string specifying the scene name for the plot. Default is `scene`.

Value

The function wirePlot returns an invisible list containing:

plot

The generated wireframe plot.

grid

The grid data used for plotting.

Details

The wirePlot function is used to create a 3D wireframe plot that visualizes the relationship between two factors and a response variable. The plot can be customized in various ways, including changing axis labels, adding subtitles, and choosing the color palette.

Examples

# Example 1: Basic wireframe plot
x <- seq(-10, 10, length = 30)
y <- seq(-10, 10, length = 30)
z <- outer(x, y, function(a, b) sin(sqrt(a^2 + b^2)))
wirePlot(x, y, z, main = "3D Wireframe Plot", xlab = "X-Axis", ylab = "Y-Axis", zlab = "Z-Axis")

fdo = rsmDesign(k = 3, blocks = 2)
fdo$.response(data.frame(y = rnorm(fdo$nrow())))

#I - display linear fit
wirePlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "linear")

#II - display full fit (i.e. effect, interactions and quadratic effects
wirePlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "full")

#III - display a fit specified before
fdo$set.fits(fdo$lm(y ~ B + I(A^2)))
wirePlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "fit")

#IV - display a fit given directly
wirePlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "y ~ A*B + I(A^2)")

#V - display a fit using a different colorRamp
wirePlot(A,B,y, data = fdo, form = "full", col = 2)
