emstreeR
enables R users to fast and easily compute an Euclidean
Minimum Spanning Tree (EMST) from data. This package relies on
{RcppMLPACK} to provide an R interface for the Dual-Tree Boruvka
algorithm (March, Ram, Gray, 2010) implemented in mlpack, the C++
Machine Learning Library (Curtin et. al., 2013). The Dual-Tree Boruvka
is theoretically and empirically the fastest algorithm for computing an
EMST. This package also provides functions and an S3 method for readily
plotting Minimum Spanning Trees (MST) using either the style of the
{base}, {scatterplot3d}, or {ggplot2} libraries.
computeMST()
computes an Euclidean Minimum Spanning Tree for the input data.plot.MST()
an S3 method for the generic functionplot()
that produces 2D MST plots.plotMST3D()
plots a 3D MST using the {scatterplot3d} style.stat_MST()
a {ggplot2} Stat extension for plotting a 2D MST.
