Syntax

trellisplot = sbiotrellis(data,groupCol,xCol,yCol)
trellisplot = sbiotrellis(data,groupCol,xCol,yCol,Name,Value)
trellisplot = sbiotrellis(data,fcnHandle,groupCol,xCol,yCol)
trellisplot = sbiotrellis(simData,fcnHandle,xCol,yCol)

Description

example

trellisplot = sbiotrellis(data,groupCol,xCol,yCol) plots each group in data as defined by the group column variable groupCol into its own subplot. The data defined by column xCol is plotted against the data defined by column(s) yCol.

example

trellisplot = sbiotrellis(data,groupCol,xCol,yCol,Name,Value) uses additional options specified by one or more Name,Value pair arguments that are supported by the plot command.

example

trellisplot = sbiotrellis(data,fcnHandle,groupCol,xCol,yCol) plots each group in data as defined by the group column variable groupCol into its own subplot. sbiotrellis creates the subplot by calling the function handle, fcnHandle, with input arguments defined by the data columns xCol and yCol. The fcnHandle cannot be empty and must be specified.

The fcnHandle must have the signature fcnHandle(x,y), where x is a numeric column vector, and y is a matrix with the same number of rows as x.

For instance, if you want to create a trellis plot with a logarithmic y-axis, use @semilogy as the function handle, where semilogy is the function that plots data with logarithmic scale for the y-axis.

example

trellisplot = sbiotrellis(simData,fcnHandle,xCol,yCol) plots each group in simData into its own subplot. sbiotrellis creates the subplot by calling the function handle, fcnHandle with input arguments defined by the columns xCol and yCol. The fcnHandle can be empty ('' or []). If empty, the default time plot is created using the handle @plot.

The fcnHandle must have the signature fcnHandle(simDataI,xCol,yCol), where simDataI is a single SimData object, and xCol and yCol are the corresponding input arguments to sbiotrellis.

Tip

Use the plot method of a sbiotrellis object to overlay a SimData object or a dataset on an existing sbiotrellis plot. For example, plot(trellisplot,...) adds a plot to the object trellisplot. The SimData or dataset that is being plotted must have the same number of elements or groups as the trellisplot object. The plot method has the same input arguments as sbiotrellis.

Input Arguments

collapse all

Data, specified as a dataset (Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox) containing grouped data, a groupedData object, or a table.

Group column name, specified as a character vector or string which is the name of a column in data that contains grouping information or an empty name '' or ""which implies there is only one group in data.

Name of a column to plot on the x-axis, specified as a character vector or string.

If data is groupedData, then xCol can also be an empty name '' or "", and the x-coordinates of the data are determined by the variable specified in DATA.Properties.IndependentVariableName.

If data is dataset (Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox) or table, then xCol cannot be empty.

Name of a column to plot on the y-axis, specified as a character vector, string, string vector, or cell array of character vectors.

Handle to a function, specified as a function handle.

If the first argument is a dataset (Statistics and Machine Learning Toolbox) or groupedData object, the fcnHandle must have the signature fcnHandle(x,y), where x is a numeric column vector, and y is a matrix with the same number of rows as x.

If it is a SimData object, the fcnHandle must have the signature fcnHandle(simDataI,xCol,yCol), where simDataI is a single SimData object, and xCol and yCol are the corresponding input arguments to sbiotrellis.

Simulation data, specified as a SimData object.

Output Arguments

Plot object, specified as a sbiotrellis object. The object has the following properties.

  • hFig – This is a MATLAB® figure object. Use this object to control the appearance and behavior of the figure. For instance, to change the figure window background color to white, enter trellisplot.hFig.Color = 'white'. For the list of properties, see the Figure Properties properties.

  • nPlots – This property tells you the total number of plots in the figure.

  • plots – This is a vector of axes objects with length equal to nPlots. Use this property to control the appearance and behavior of axes objects. For example, if you want to change the y-axis to a log scale, enter set(trellisplot.plots,'YScale','log'). For the list of properties, see the Axes Properties properties.

Open Live Script

Load a sample dataset. The data contains measurements of drug concentration in the central and peripheral compartments for 30 subjects.

load('sd5_302RAgeSex.mat');

Create a trellis plot of the Central concentrations for each subject.

t = sbiotrellis(data, 'ID', 'Time', 'CentralConc',...
               'Marker', 'o','LineStyle','--','MarkerFaceColor','b');
% Resize the figure.
t.hFig.Position(:) = [100 100 1200 800];

Use the plot method of the sbiotrellis object to overlay the peripheral concentration data on the same plot.

plot(t,data,'ID','Time','PeripheralConc','Marker','d',...
            'LineStyle',':','MarkerFaceColor','r');

Specify the function handle @semilogy to change the y-axis to log scale.

t2 = sbiotrellis(data,@semilogy,'ID','Time','CentralConc');
%Resize the figure
t2.hFig.Position(:) = [100 100 1200 800];

plot(t2,data,@semilogy,'ID','Time','PeripheralConc');
