BinaryYScatterPlot: Plot a scatter plot of a binary variable with smoothing curve.

Description

Plot the scatter plot of a binary variable with a smoothing curve.

Usage

BinaryYScatterPlot(
  frame,
  xvar,
  yvar,
  title,
  ...,
  se = FALSE,
  use_glm = TRUE,
  point_color = "black",
  smooth_color = "blue"
)

Arguments

frame

data frame to get values from

xvar

name of the independent column in frame

yvar

name of the dependent (output or result to be modeled) column in frame

title

title to place on plot

...

no unnamed argument, added to force named binding of later arguments.

se

if TRUE, add error bars (defaults to FALSE). Ignored if useGLM is TRUE

use_glm

if TRUE, "smooths" with a one-variable logistic regression (defaults to TRUE)

point_color

color for points

smooth_color

color for smoothing line

Details

The points are jittered for legibility. By default, a logistic regression fit is used, so that the smoothing curve represents the probability of y == 1 (as fit by the logistic regression). If use_glm is set to FALSE, a standard smoothing curve (either loess or a spline fit) is used.

Examples

Run this code

if (requireNamespace('data.table', quietly = TRUE)) {
	# don't multi-thread during CRAN checks
		data.table::setDTthreads(1)
}

set.seed(34903490)
x = rnorm(50)
y = 0.5*x^2 + 2*x + rnorm(length(x))
frm = data.frame(x=x,y=y,yC=y>=as.numeric(quantile(y,probs=0.8)))
frm$absY <- abs(frm$y)
frm$posY = frm$y > 0
frm$costX = 1
WVPlots::BinaryYScatterPlot(frm, "x", "posY",
   title="Example 'Probability of Y' Plot")
