Radial Visualization Shiny Gadgets

The following package creates a RShiny Gadgets for Radial Visualizations.

Star Coordinates

The original Star Coordinates as proposed by Kandogan [1] along with optional axis calibration [3]. As the original approach is based on solely numerical attributes, an extension to hybrid representation can be applied [4].

Other extensions for the approach are implemented. Hints [4] and Orthographic Star Coordinates [2].

RadViz

An implementation of the traditional RadViz as presented in [5].

Installation

You can install the stable version from the main branch:

devtools::install_github(repo = "jmatute/RadialShinyGadgets", ref="main")

Usage
