R Plotly - Plotting Multiple Polynomial Regression Lines

I have a graph similar to the following:

library(plotly)
df <-  as.data.frame(1:19)

df$CATEGORY <- c("C","C","A","A","A","B","B","A","B","B","A","C","B","B","A","B","C","B","B")
df$x <- c(126,40,12,42,17,150,54,35,21,71,52,115,52,40,22,73,98,35,196)
df$y <- c(92,62,4,23,60,60,49,41,50,76,52,24,9,78,71,25,21,22,25)

df[,1] <- NULL

df$fv <- df %>%
  filter(!is.na(x)) %>%
  lm(y ~ x*CATEGORY,.) %>%
  fitted.values()

p <- plot_ly(data = df,
         x = ~x,
         y = ~y,
         color = ~CATEGORY,
         type = "scatter",
         mode = "markers"
) %>%
  add_trace(x = ~x, y = ~fv, mode = "lines")

p

It works fine since I need to have multiple regression line on the same plot, but what I would really need is polynomial regression lines for each category. I tried to replace "lm(y ~ x*CATEGORY,.) " with the following:

df1$fv <- df1 %>%
                                                  filter(!is.na(x)) %>%
                                                  lm(y ~ poly(x*CATEGORY,.),2) %>%
                                                  fitted.values()

but it doesn't work. Any suggestions? Thank you

@Dave2e is correct about the mis-specification. To generate a plot that looks good (i.e., one that generates a polynomial-looking curve, you might need to do a bit more work:

library(plotly)
library(ggeffects)
library(dplyr)
library(tidyr)
df <-  as.data.frame(1:19)

df$CATEGORY <- c("C","C","A","A","A","B","B","A","B","B","A","C","B","B","A","B","C","B","B")
df$x <- c(126,40,12,42,17,150,54,35,21,71,52,115,52,40,22,73,98,35,196)
df$y <- c(92,62,4,23,60,60,49,41,50,76,52,24,9,78,71,25,21,22,25)

df[,1] <- NULL

df <- df %>% arrange(CATEGORY, x)

hyp <- by(df$x, list(df$CATEGORY), function(x)seq(min(x), max(x), length=50))

hyp <- do.call(data.frame, hyp) %>% 
  pivot_longer(everything(), names_to = "CATEGORY", values_to="x")

mod <- lm(y ~ poly(x, 2)*CATEGORY, data=df)
hyp$predicted <- predict(mod, newdata=hyp)
 

p <- plot_ly() %>%
  add_trace(data = df,
            x = ~x,
            y = ~y,
            color = ~CATEGORY,
            type = "scatter",
            mode = "markers") %>%
  add_trace(data = hyp, x = ~x, y = ~predicted, color = ~CATEGORY, mode = "lines")
p

Your formula is incorrect. Try:

df %>%
   filter(!is.na(x)) %>%
   lm(y ~ poly(x,2, raw=TRUE)*CATEGORY, data=.) %>%
   fitted.values()
  • df1 is not defined in your sample code, so assuming df here.
  • Use the data=. to reference the data source.
  • Inside the poly function define the power, in this case 2.
  • Move CATEGORY outside the poly function. x* CATEGORY + x^2* CATEGORY etc.
