biplotEZ: EZ-to-Use Biplots

Provides users with an EZ-to-use platform for representing data with biplots. Currently principal component analysis (PCA), canonical variate analysis (CVA) and simple correspondence analysis (CA) biplots are included. This is accompanied by various formatting options for the samples and axes. Alpha-bags and concentration ellipses are included for visual enhancements and interpretation. For an extensive discussion on the topic, see Gower, J.C., Lubbe, S. and le Roux, N.J. (2011, ISBN: 978-0-470-01255-0) Understanding Biplots. Wiley: Chichester.
