How to plot points on a hexbin graph in R?

I have two datasets that need to be plotted on the same graph. The set is very large (~ 10⁢) and I want to build with hexbin and the other set is very small (~ 10) and I want to plot the points. How do I draw dots on a hexbine? The closer to success I got this:

bin = hexbin(x, y)
plot(bin)
pushViewport(dataViewport(x, y))
grid.points(x, y)

      

I appreciate any help :)

Assuming you are using a package hexbin

...

library(hexbin)
library(grid)

# some data from the ?hexbin help
set.seed(101)
x <- rnorm(10000)
y <- rnorm(10000)
z <- w <- -3:3

# hexbin
bin <- hexbin(x, y)

# plot  - look at str(p)
p <- plot(bin)

# push plot viewport
pushHexport(p$plot.vp)

# add points
grid.points(z, w, pch=16, gp=gpar(col="red"))

upViewport()

You can use the ggplot package for this task, see the code below, just replace the data.frame used in the data parameter for geom_point with one for the points you want to plot.



library(ggplot2)
library(hexbin)
ggplot(diamonds, aes(carat, price)) + stat_binhex() + geom_point(data = diamonds[c(1,10,100,1000), ], aes(carat, price), size=10, color = 'red' )

Try this ... it should work fine. Just create panel.function in hexbinplot :

hexbinplot(d.frame$X ~ d.frame$Y
   ,aspect=...,cex.title=...
   ,panel=function(x, y, ...){
      panel.hexbinplot(x,y,...)
   #   panel.curve(...)        # optional stuff
   #   panel.text(...)         # optional stuff
      panel.points(x=c(25,50),y=c(100,150),pch=20,cex=3.2)
   }
)
