我认为一种更清晰的方法是使用varname.size
andvarname.adjust
参数调整标签的大小和位置。但是,由于变量很多,它看起来仍然很拥挤。通过增加箭头的长度(类似于stats::biplot()
),使它看起来更好一些(imo)
# install ggbiplot
#require(devtools)
#install_github('ggbiplot','vqv')
library(httr)
library(ggbiplot)
# read data
url <- "https://gist.githubusercontent.com/anonymous/5f1135e4f750a39b0255/raw/data.txt"
dat <- read.table(text=content(GET(url), as="text"), header=TRUE)
# pca
data.pca <- prcomp (dat, center = TRUE, scale =TRUE)
# original plot + increase labels size and space from line
p <- ggbiplot(data.pca, obs.scale=1,
var.scale=1, circle=F,
varname.size=4, varname.adjust=2)
p
# use coord_equal() to change size ratio of plot (excludes use of circle)
p <- p + coord_equal(1.5) + theme_classic()
p
要扩展箭头,需要重新计算 x 和 y 坐标。然后,您可以使用这些来编辑相关的 grobs,并更改任何其他参数(颜色、大小、旋转等)。(您可以采用整个ggplotGrob(p)
方法,但只需grid.edit()
在下面使用。)
# function to rescale the x & y positions of the lines and labels
f <- function(a0, a1, M=M)
{
l <- lapply(as.list(environment()), as.numeric)
out <- M* (l$a1 - l$a0) + l$a0
grid::unit(out, "native")
}
# get list of grobs in current graphics window
grobs <- grid.ls(print=FALSE)
# find segments grob for the arrows
s_id <- grobs$name[grep("segments", grobs$name)]
# edit length and colour of lines
seg <- grid.get(gPath(s_id[2]))
grid.edit(gPath(s_id[2]),
x1=f(seg$x0, seg$x1, 2),
y1=f(seg$y0, seg$y1, 2),
gp=gpar(col="red"))
# find text grob for the arrow labels
lab_id <- grobs$name[grep("text", grobs$name)]
# edit position of text, and rotate and colour labels
seg2 <- grid.get(gPath(lab_id))
grid.edit(gPath(lab_id),
x=f(seg$x0, seg2$x, 2),
y=f(seg$y0, seg2$y, 2),
rot=0,
gp=gpar(col="red"))
主观的,如果这让它变得更好,也许只是使用biplot()
甚至定义一个新功能更容易
