Plot report/table bundles with base R defaults

Usage

# S3 method for class 'mfrm_bundle'
plot(x, y = NULL, type = NULL, ...)

Arguments

x

A bundle object returned by mfrmr table/report helpers.

y

Reserved for generic compatibility.

type

Optional plot type. Available values depend on bundle class.

...

Additional arguments forwarded to class-specific plotters.

Value

A plotting-data object of class mfrm_plot_data.

Details

plot() dispatches by bundle class:

  • mfrm_unexpected -> plot_unexpected()

  • mfrm_fair_average -> plot_fair_average()

  • mfrm_displacement -> plot_displacement()

  • mfrm_interrater -> plot_interrater_agreement()

  • mfrm_facets_chisq -> plot_facets_chisq()

  • mfrm_bias_interaction -> plot_bias_interaction()

  • mfrm_bias_count -> bias-count plots (cell counts / low-count rates)

  • mfrm_fixed_reports -> pairwise-contrast diagnostics

  • mfrm_visual_summaries -> warning/summary message count plots

  • mfrm_category_structure -> default base-R category plots

  • mfrm_category_curves -> default ogive/CCC plots

  • mfrm_rating_scale -> category-counts/threshold plots

  • mfrm_measurable -> measurable-data coverage/count plots

  • mfrm_unexpected_after_bias -> post-bias unexpected-response plots

  • mfrm_output_bundle -> graph/score output-file diagnostics

  • mfrm_residual_pca -> residual PCA scree/loadings via plot_residual_pca()

  • mfrm_specifications -> facet/anchor/convergence plots

  • mfrm_data_quality -> row-audit/category/missing-row plots

  • mfrm_iteration_report -> replayed-iteration trajectories

  • mfrm_subset_connectivity -> subset-observation/connectivity plots

  • mfrm_facet_statistics -> facet statistic profile plots

If a class is outside these families, use dedicated plotting helpers or custom base R graphics on component tables.

Interpreting output

The returned object is plotting data (mfrm_plot_data) that captures the selected route and payload; set draw = TRUE for immediate base graphics.

Typical workflow

  1. Create bundle output (e.g., unexpected_response_table()).

  2. Inspect routing with summary(bundle) if needed.

  3. Call plot(bundle, type = ..., draw = FALSE) to obtain reusable plot data.

Examples

toy <- load_mfrmr_data("example_core")
fit <- fit_mfrm(toy, "Person", c("Rater", "Criterion"), "Score", method = "JML", maxit = 25)
t4 <- unexpected_response_table(fit, abs_z_min = 1.5, prob_max = 0.4, top_n = 10)
p <- plot(t4, draw = FALSE)
vis <- build_visual_summaries(fit, diagnose_mfrm(fit, residual_pca = "none"))
p_vis <- plot(vis, type = "comparison", draw = FALSE)
spec <- specifications_report(fit)
p_spec <- plot(spec, type = "facet_elements", draw = FALSE)
if (interactive()) {
  plot(
    t4,
    type = "severity",
    draw = TRUE,
    main = "Unexpected Response Severity (Customized)",
    palette = c(higher = "#d95f02", lower = "#1b9e77", bar = "#2b8cbe"),
    label_angle = 45
  )
  plot(
    vis,
    type = "comparison",
    draw = TRUE,
    main = "Warning vs Summary Counts (Customized)",
    palette = c(warning = "#cb181d", summary = "#3182bd"),
    label_angle = 45
  )
}
