R语言绘制散点图结合边际分布图

本博客主要介绍使用R语言利用ggplot绘制散点图，并且在图像的两边绘制边际分布图（包括边际直方图与边际密度函数）

我们这里介绍两种方法进行绘制：

1. 主要使用ggExtra结合ggplot2两个R包进行绘制。（胜在简洁方便）
2. 使用cowplot与ggpubr进行绘制。（胜在灵活且美观）

下面的绘图我们均以iris数据集为例。

1. 使用ggExtra结合ggplot2

1）传统散点图

# library
library(ggplot2)
library(ggExtra)# classic plot
p <- ggplot(iris) +geom_point(aes(x = Sepal.Length, y = Sepal.Width, color = Species), alpha = 0.6, shape = 16) +  # alpha 调整点的透明度；shape 调整点的形状theme_bw() +theme(legend.position = "bottom") + # 图例置于底部labs(x = "Sepal Length", y = "Sepal Width") # 添加x，y轴的名称
p

下面我们一行代码添加边际分布（分别以密度曲线与直方图的形式来展现）：

2）密度函数

# marginal plot: density
ggMarginal(p, type = "density", groupColour = TRUE, groupFill = TRUE)

3）直方图

# marginal plot: histogram
ggMarginal(p, type = "histogram", groupColour = TRUE, groupFill = TRUE)

4）箱线图（宽窄的显示会有些问题）

# marginal plot: boxplot
ggMarginal(p, type = "boxplot", groupColour = TRUE, groupFill = TRUE)

5）小提琴图（会有重叠，不建议使用）

# marginal plot: violin
ggMarginal(p, type = "violin", groupColour = TRUE, groupFill = TRUE)

6）密度函数与直方图同时展现

# marginal plot: densigram
ggMarginal(p, type = "densigram", groupColour = TRUE, groupFill = TRUE)

2. 使用cowplot与ggpubr

1）重绘另一种散点图

# Scatter plot colored by groups ("Species")
sp <- ggscatter(iris, x = "Sepal.Length", y = "Sepal.Width",color = "Species", palette = "jco",size = 3, alpha = 0.6) +border() +theme(legend.position = "bottom")
sp

2）有缝拼接

① 密度函数

library(cowplot)# Marginal density plot of x (top panel) and y (right panel)
xplot <- ggdensity(iris, "Sepal.Length", fill = "Species",palette = "jco")
yplot <- ggdensity(iris, "Sepal.Width", fill = "Species", palette = "jco") +rotate()# Cleaning the plots
sp <- sp + rremove("legend")
yplot <- yplot + clean_theme() + rremove("legend")
xplot <- xplot + clean_theme() + rremove("legend")
# Arranging the plot using cowplot
plot_grid(xplot, NULL, sp, yplot, ncol = 2, align = "hv", rel_widths = c(2, 1), rel_heights = c(1, 2))

② 未被压缩的箱线图

# Marginal boxplot of x (top panel) and y (right panel)
xplot <- ggboxplot(iris, x = "Species", y = "Sepal.Length", color = "Species", fill = "Species", palette = "jco",alpha = 0.5, ggtheme = theme_bw())+rotate()
yplot <- ggboxplot(iris, x = "Species", y = "Sepal.Width",color = "Species", fill = "Species", palette = "jco",alpha = 0.5, ggtheme = theme_bw())
# Cleaning the plots
sp <- sp + rremove("legend")
yplot <- yplot + clean_theme() + rremove("legend")
xplot <- xplot + clean_theme() + rremove("legend")
# Arranging the plot using cowplot
plot_grid(xplot, NULL, sp, yplot, ncol = 2, align = "hv", rel_widths = c(2, 1), rel_heights = c(1, 2))

3）无缝拼接

# Main plot
pmain <- ggplot(iris, aes(x = Sepal.Length, y = Sepal.Width, color = Species)) +geom_point() +color_palette("jco")
# Marginal densities along x axis
xdens <- axis_canvas(pmain, axis = "x") +geom_density(data = iris, aes(x = Sepal.Length, fill = Species),alpha = 0.7, size = 0.2) +fill_palette("jco")
# Marginal densities along y axis
# Need to set coord_flip = TRUE, if you plan to use coord_flip()
ydens <- axis_canvas(pmain, axis = "y", coord_flip = TRUE) +geom_density(data = iris, aes(x = Sepal.Width, fill = Species),alpha = 0.7, size = 0.2) +coord_flip() +fill_palette("jco")
p1 <- insert_xaxis_grob(pmain, xdens, grid::unit(.2, "null"), position = "top")
p2 <- insert_yaxis_grob(p1, ydens, grid::unit(.2, "null"), position = "right")
ggdraw(p2)
