This package contains many statistical recipes for concepts and types introduced in the JuliaStats organization, intended to be used with Plots.jl:
Initialize:
.clone("git@github.com:JuliaPlots/StatPlots.jl.git")
g StatPlots
ize=(400,300))
Table-like data structures, including DataFrames, IndexedTables, DataStreams, etc… (see here for an exhaustive list), are supported thanks to the macro @df which allows passing columns as symbols. Those columns can then be manipulated inside the plot call, like normal Arrays:
g DataFrames, IndexedTables
DataFrame(a = 1:10, b = 10*rand(10), c = 10 * rand(10))
df plot(:a, [:b :c], colour = [:red :blue])
df scatter(:a, :b, markersize = 4 * log.(:c + 0.1))
table(1:10, rand(10), names = [:a, :b]) # IndexedTable
t scatter(2 * :b)
Inside a @df macro call, the cols utility function can be used to refer to a range of columns:
df plot(:a, cols(2:3), colour = [:red :blue])
or to refer to a column whose symbol is represented by a variable:
:b
df plot(:a, cols(s))
In case of ambiguity, symbols not referring to DataFrame columns must be escaped by ^():
red] = rand(10)
df plot(:a, [:b :c], colour = ^([:red :blue]))
The @df macro plays nicely with the new syntax of the Query.jl data manipulation package (v0.8 and above), in that a plot command can be added at the end of a query pipeline, without having to explicitly collect the outcome of the query first:
g Query, StatPlots
>
@filter(_.a > 5) |>
@map({_.b, d = _.c-10}) |>
@df scatter(:b, :d)
The @df syntax is also compatible with Plots grouping machinery:
g RDatasets
ol = RDatasets.dataset("mlmRev","Hsb82")
school density(:MAch, group = :Sx)
To group by more than one column, use a tuple of symbols:
school density(:MAch, group = (:Sx, :Sector), legend = :topleft)
The old syntax, passing the DataFrame as the first argument to the plot call is no longer supported.
g RDatasets
= dataset("datasets","iris")
iris marginalhist(:PetalLength, :PetalWidth)
iris corrplot([:SepalLength :SepalWidth :PetalLength :PetalWidth], grid = false)
or also:
iris corrplot(cols(1:4), grid = false)
A correlation plot may also be produced from a matrix:
randn(1000,4)
2] += 0.8sqrt.(abs.(M[:,1])) - 0.5M[:,3] + 5
3] -= 0.7M[:,1].^2 + 2
plot(M, label = ["x$i" for i=1:4])
erplot(M)
erplot(M, compact=true)
rt RDatasets
ers = RDatasets.dataset("lattice","singer")
singers violin(:VoicePart,:Height,marker=(0.2,:blue,stroke(0)))
singers boxplot!(:VoicePart,:Height,marker=(0.3,:orange,stroke(2)))
Asymmetric violin plots can be created using the side keyword (:both - default,:right or :left), e.g.:
ers_moscow = deepcopy(singers)
ers_moscow[:Height] = singers_moscow[:Height]+5
singers violin(:VoicePart,:Height, side=:right, marker=(0.2,:blue,stroke(0)), label="Scala")
singers_moscow violin!(:VoicePart,:Height, side=:left, marker=(0.2,:red,stroke(0)), label="Moscow")
The ea-histogram is an alternative histogram implementation, where every 'box' in the histogram contains the same number of sample points and all boxes have the same area. Areas with a higher density of points thus get higher boxes. This type of histogram shows spikes well, but may oversmooth in the tails. The y axis is not intuitively interpretable.
[randn(100); randn(100)+3; randn(100)/2+3]
istogram(a, bins = :scott, fillalpha = 0.4)
g Distributions
(Normal(3,5), fill=(0, .5,:orange))
= Gamma(2)
ter(dist, leg=false)
(dist, func=cdf, alpha=0.3)
The qqplot function compares the quantiles of two distributions, and accepts either a vector of sample values or a Distribution. The qqnorm is a shorthand for comparing a distribution to the normal distribution. If the distributions are similar the points will be on a straight line.
rand(Normal(), 100)
rand(Cauchy(), 100)
(
lot(x, y, qqline = :fit), # qqplot of two samples, show a fitted regression line
lot(Cauchy, y), # compare with a Cauchy distribution fitted to y; pass an instance (e.g. Normal(0,1)) to compare with a specific distribution
orm(x, qqline = :R) # the :R default line passes through the 1st and 3rd quartiles of the distribution
pedbar(rand(10,3), bar_position = :stack, bar_width=0.7)
This is the default:
pedbar(rand(10,3), bar_position = :dodge, bar_width=0.7)
The group syntax is also possible in combination with groupedbar:
pedbar([1, 2, 1, 2, 1, 2], rand(6), group = [1, 1, 2, 2, 3, 3])
Population analysis on a table-like data structures can be done using the highly recommended GroupedErrors package.
This external package, in combination with StatPlots, greatly simplifies the creation of two types of plots:
Some simple summary statistics are computed for each experimental subject (mean is default but any scalar valued function would do) and then plotted against some other summary statistics, potentially splitting by some categorical experimental variable.
Some statistical analysis is computed at the single subject level (for example the density/hazard/cumulative of some variable, or the expected value of a variable given another) and the analysis is summarized across subjects (taking for example mean and s.e.m), potentially splitting by some categorical experimental variable.
For more information please refer to the README.
A GUI based on QML and the GR Plots.jl backend to simplify the use of StatPlots.jl and GroupedErrors.jl even further can be found here (usable but still in alpha stage).
