circlize (version 0.4.16)
Description
Circular layout is an efficient way for the visualization of huge
amounts of information. Here this package provides an implementation
of circular layout generation in R as well as an enhancement of available
software. The flexibility of the package is based on the usage of low-level
graphics functions such that self-defined high-level graphics can be easily
implemented by users for specific purposes. Together with the seamless
connection between the powerful computational and visual environment in R,
it gives users more convenience and freedom to design figures for
better understanding complex patterns behind multiple dimensional data.
The package is described in Gu et al. 2014 .
