An implementation of the biplot using ggplot2. The package provides two functions: ggscreeplot()
and ggbiplot()
.
ggbiplot
aims to be a drop-in replacement for the built-in R function biplot.princomp()
with extended functionality
for labeling groups, drawing a correlation circle, and adding Normal probability ellipsoids.
The development of this software was supported in part by NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship DMS-0903120
