tourr

The goal of tourr is to explore shapes of high-dimensional data. This code also allows new tour methods to be created that utilise geodesic interpolation and basis generation functions.

Installation

You can install the released version of tourr from CRAN with:

install.packages("tourr")

You can install the development version of tourr from github with:

# install.packages("remotes")
remotes::install_github("ggobi/tourr")

Example

To run a tour in R, use one of the animate functions. This code will show a 2D tour displayed as a scatterplot on a 6D data set with three labelled classes.

animate_xy(flea[,-7], col=flea$species)
