How to plot stat_mean for scatterplot in R ggplot2?-CodePudding

For each treatment tmt, I want to plot the means using stat_summary in ggplot2 with different colour size. I find that the there are mulitple means being plotted over the current points. Not sure how to rectify it.

df <- data.frame(x = rnorm(12, 4,1), y = rnorm(12, 6,4), tmt = rep(c("A","B","C"), each = 4))

  ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y, fill  = tmt), data = df)  
  geom_point(shape=21, size=5, alpha = 0.6)  
  scale_fill_manual(values=c("pink","blue", "purple"))  
  stat_summary(aes(fill = tmt), fun = 'mean', geom = 'point', size = 5)   
  scale_fill_manual(values=c("pink","blue", "purple"))

Plot without the last two lines of code

Plot with the entire code

CodePudding user response：

Using stat_summary you compute the mean of y for each pair of x and tmt. If you want the mean of x and the mean of y per tmt I would suggest to manually compute the means outside of ggplot and use a second geom_point to plot the means. In my code below I increased the size and used rectangles for the means:

df <- data.frame(x = rnorm(12, 4,1), y = rnorm(12, 6,4), tmt = rep(c("A","B","C"), each = 4))

library(ggplot2)
library(dplyr)

df_mean <- df |> 
  group_by(tmt) |> 
  summarise(across(c(x, y), mean))

ggplot(aes(x = x, y = y, fill  = tmt), data = df)  
  geom_point(shape=21, size=5, alpha = 0.6)  
  geom_point(data = df_mean, shape=22, size=8, alpha = 0.6)  
  scale_fill_manual(values=c("pink","blue", "purple"))
