ggcorrplot vs rjd3highfreq
A side-by-side editorial comparison of ggcorrplot and rjd3highfreq — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
ggcorrplot vs rjd3highfreq: at a glance
What is ggcorrplot?
ggcorrplot came back after four years and found its significance markers had been lying
ggcorrplot draws correlation matrices in ggplot2 with optional significance marking and hierarchical reordering. It sat untouched from late 2022 until mid-2026, then shipped 0.2.0 and 0.3.0 sixteen days apart. Between them they added the display options users had been requesting since 2016 and repaired a set of bugs where hc.order = TRUE silently changed which cells were marked significant.
What is rjd3highfreq?
rjd3highfreq ships whatever the Java side ships, and only occasionally says what that was.
An R wrapper around JDemetra+ routines for seasonal adjustment of high-frequency time series, built on fractional airline decomposition. Only three releases are on record, roughly one every six months, and two of them describe nothing beyond updated .jar files. The package is a thin binding whose substance lives in the Java libraries it packages, and the release notes reflect that literally.

◆ Current state
ggcorrplot draws correlation matrices in ggplot2 with optional significance marking and hierarchical reordering. It sat untouched from late 2022 until mid-2026, then shipped 0.2.0 and 0.3.0 sixteen days apart. Between them they added the display options users had been requesting since 2016 and repaired a set of bugs where hc.order = TRUE silently changed which cells were marked significant.
◆ Where it's heading
Both releases chase the same target: parity with the older corrplot package inside a ggplot2 object. Significance stars appended to coefficient labels, circle scaling, decimal control, then boxed cells and glyphs sized by absolute correlation — these are corrplot's visual vocabulary reimplemented where they can be composed with other ggplot2 layers. The bug fixes point the other way, at foundations: p-values matched to cells by name rather than row position, clustering computed on the unrounded matrix, tl.col actually applied.
◆ Prediction
With the corrplot look largely reproduced and the correctness backlog cleared, the remaining gap is the mixed upper/lower display corrplot supports; that is the natural next argument if the current release pace holds.

rjd3highfreq ships whatever the Java side ships, and only occasionally says what that was.
◆ Current state
An R wrapper around JDemetra+ routines for seasonal adjustment of high-frequency time series, built on fractional airline decomposition. Only three releases are on record, roughly one every six months, and two of them describe nothing beyond updated .jar files. The package is a thin binding whose substance lives in the Java libraries it packages, and the release notes reflect that literally.
◆ Where it's heading
The one release with detail points at where the work actually is: 2.4.1 exposes eps and deps parameters on fractionalAirlineDecomposition(), controlling the optimisation routine's convergence precision and the step size for its numerical derivatives. That is tuning access for users whose series were not converging well under the defaults, and it is the only user-facing surface change visible here. The earlier entry even appears under a different package name, rjd3xhighfreq, which suggests some instability in how this line is published.
◆ Prediction
Expect further releases tracking JDemetra+ .jar versions, with R-level parameters exposed only as specific estimation problems surface; the entries do not support a firmer read than that.
