Flexible function to create correlation density plots

numeric matrix or data.frame

correlationPlot(
  mat,
  density = "smooth",
  thin = "auto",
  method = "pearson",
  whichParameters = NULL
)

Arguments

mat

matrix or data frame of variables

density

type of plot to do

thin

thinning of the matrix to make things faster. Default is to thin to 5000

method

method for calculating correlations

whichParameters

all params or some
