fviz_pca: Quick Principal Component Analysis data visualization - R software and data mining
Description
Draw the graph of individuals/variables from the output of Principal Component Analysis (PCA).
The following functions, from factoextra package are use:
- fviz_pca_ind(): Graph of individuals
- fviz_pca_var(): Graph of variables
- fviz_pca_biplot() (or fviz_pca()): Biplot of individuals and variables
Install and load factoextra
The package devtools is required for the installation as factoextra is hosted on github.

fviz_pca(X, ...)Arguments
| Argument | Description |
|---|---|
| X | an object of class PCA [FactoMineR]; prcomp and princomp [stats]; dudi and pca [ade4]. |
| axes | a numeric vector of length 2 specifying the dimensions to be plotted. |
| geom | a text specifying the geometry to be used for the graph. Allowed values are the combination of c(“point”, “arrow”, “text”). Use “point” (to show only points); “text” to show only labels; c(“point”, “text”) or c(“arrow”, “text”) to show both types. |
| label | a text specifying the elements to be labelled. Default value is “all”. Allowed values are “none” or the combination of c(“ind”, “ind.sup”, “quali”, “var”, “quanti.sup”). “ind” can be used to label only active individuals. “ind.sup” is for supplementary individuals. “quali” is for supplementary qualitative variables. “var” is for active variables. “quanti.sup” is for quantitative supplementary variables. |
| invisible | a text specifying the elements to be hidden on the plot. Default value is “none”. Allowed values are the combination of c(“ind”, “ind.sup”, “quali”, “var”, “quanti.sup”). |
| labelsize | font size for the labels. |
| pointsize | the size of points. |
| habillage | an optional factor variable for coloring the observations by groups. Default value is “none”. If X is a PCA object from FactoMineR package, habillage can also specify the supplementary qualitative variable (by its index or name) to be used for coloring individuals by groups (see ?PCA in FactoMineR). |
| addEllipses | logical value. If TRUE, draws ellipses around the individuals when habillage != “none”. |
| ellipse.level | the size of the concentration ellipse in normal probability. |
| col.ind,col.var | colors for individuals and variables, respectively. Possible values include also : “cos2”, “contrib”, “coord”, “x” or “y”. In this case, the colors for individuals/variables are automatically controlled by their qualities of representation (“cos2”), contributions (“contrib”), coordinates (x^2 + y^2, “coord”), x values (“x”) or y values (“y”). To use automatic coloring (by cos2, contrib, ….), make sure that habillage =“none”. |
| col.ind.sup | color for supplementary individuals. |
| alpha.ind,alpha.var | controls the transparency of individual and variable colors, respectively. The value can variate from 0 (total transparency) to 1 (no transparency). Default value is 1. Possible values include also : “cos2”, “contrib”, “coord”, “x” or “y”. In this case, the transparency for the individual/variable colors are automatically controlled by their qualities (“cos2”), contributions (“contrib”), coordinates (x^2 + y^2 , “coord”), x values(“x”) or y values(“y”). To use this, make sure that habillage =“none”. |
| select.ind,select.var |
a selection of individuals/variables to be drawn. Allowed values are NULL or a list containing the arguments name, cos2 or contrib:
|
| jitter | a parameter used to jitter the points in order to reduce overplotting. It’s a list containing the objects what, width and height (Ex.; jitter = list(what, width, height)). what: the element to be jittered. Possible values are “point” or “p”; “label” or “l”; “both” or “b”. width: degree of jitter in x direction (ex: 0.2). height: degree of jitter in y direction (ex: 0.2). |
| col.quanti.sup | a color for the quantitative supplementary variables. |
| col.circle | a color for the correlation circle. |
| … | Arguments to be passed to the function fviz_pca_biplot(). |
Value
A ggplot2 plot
Examples
Principal component analysis
A principal component analysis (PCA) is performed using the built-in R function prcomp() and iris data:

3 4.7 3.2 1.3 0.2 setosa
4 4.6 3.1 1.5 0.2 setosa
5 5.0 3.6 1.4 0.2 setosa
