[R] plot image matrix with row/col labels

[Michael Friendly]

I'm working with an historical image that may be (one of?) the first 
uses of gray-scale shading to show the pattern of values in a 
matrix/table, later used by Bertin in his 'reorderable matrix'
and sometimes called a scalogram.

The image is at
http://euclid.psych.yorku.ca/SCS/Gallery/images/Private/scalogram.jpg
The rows refer to the arrondisements of Paris, the cols to various
population characteristics.

I want to read it into R with rimage(read.jpeg), calcualte avg. shading 
values,
and recreate an approximation to the image with the row and column 
labels.  I'm stuck at this last step,
plot(imagematrix(mat))
(and also on how to read the image from a URL).

Can someone help?  My code is below

library(rimage)
image <- read.jpeg("C:/Documents/milestone/images/scalogram.jpg")
## how to read from web?
#image <- 
read.jpeg("http://euclid.psych.yorku.ca/SCS/Gallery/images/Private/scalogram.jpg")

# remove row/col headers
img2 <- image[480:1740, 470:2350]
str(img2)

# size of each blob
ht <-floor(nrow(img2)/20);
wd <-floor(ncol(img2)/40)

# calculate trimmed mean of pixel values
mat <- matrix(nrow=20,ncol=40,0)
for (i in 1:20) {
	for (j in 1:40) {
		rows <- seq(1+(i-1)*ht, i*ht)
		cols <- seq(1+(j-1)*wd, j*wd)
		blob <- img2[ rows,  cols ]
		mat[i,j] <- mean(blob, trim=0.1)
		}
	}


# names for arrrondisements
rnames <- c(
	"01 Louvre", "02 Bourse", "03 Temple", "04 Hotel de Ville", "05 Pantheon",
	"06 Luxembourg", "07 Palais", "08 Eglise", "09 Opera", "10 St. Laurent",

dimnames(mat) <- list(rnames, cnames)

# how to plot the image matrix with row/col names???

# show the image matrix
plot(imagematrix(mat))
