Shiny Web Application: 1D MappeR

This repository contains a Shiny web application designed to visualize 1D mapper graph construction. The goal is to allow users to interactively explore different datasets/clustering methods and how they effect the mapper graph.

Getting Started:

To run the application you will need R and the Shiny package installed. You can start the application by opening the R script in RStudio and clicking the Run App button.

Prerequisites:

Ensure you have the following R packages:

  • circle
  • figure 8
  • spiral
  • barbell
• Parameter Adjustments:
  • number of points
  • projection coordinate
  • number of bins
  • percent overlap
  • clustering method
• Visualizations:
  • input data plot
    • shows the selected dataset with color coded bins
  • Mapper graph plot (also color coded)
