how to draw Venn Diagram using 6 sets

Question

I have a dataset with 6 elements.

An I would like to draw a venn diagram, but with R (Venndiagram library) it\'s limited at 5 elements.

Do you know how can

Answer 1

I wrote a javascript library a while back that can do this: venn.js . It produces this output on the dataset you gave:

Its in javascript, but Kent Russell has provided a htmlwidgets interface to call it from R.

Code to produce this is:

// define set sizes and their intersection sizes
var sets = [
    {sets: ['Ath'], size: 901},
    {sets: ['Fve'], size: 14764},
    {sets: ['Mdm'], size: 19408},
    {sets: ['Pcmm'], size: 17714},
    {sets: ['Pper'], size: 16948},
    {sets: ['Pmum'], size: 17572},
    {sets: ['Ath', 'Fve'], size: 823},
    {sets: ['Ath', 'Mdm'], size: 846},

    // need to specfiy the rest of the sets don't overlap
    {sets: ['Ath', 'Pcmm'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Ath', 'Pper'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Ath', 'Pmum'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Fve', 'Mdm'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Fve', 'Pcmm'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Fve', 'Pper'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Fve', 'Pmum'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Mdm', 'Pcmm'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Mdm', 'Pper'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Mdm', 'Pmum'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Pcmm', 'Pper'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Pcmm', 'Pmum'], size: 0},
    {sets: ['Pper', 'Pmum'], size: 0},
    ];

// draw the chart in the venn div
var chart = venn.VennDiagram();
d3.select("#venn").datum(sets).call(chart);
