Graphical perception and graphical methods for analyzing scientific data.

چکیده
Graphical perception is the visual decoding of the quantitative and qualitative information encoded on graphs. Recent investigations have uncovered basic principles of human graphical perception that have important implications for the display of data. The computer graphics revolution has stimulated the invention of many graphical methods for analyzing and presenting scientific data, such as box plots, two-tiered error bars, scatterplot smoothing, dot charts, and graphing on a log base 2 scale.

Genetic Study of Agronomic Traits in Tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) Using Hayman’s Graphical Analysis of Diallel
For the purpose of graphical analysis and estimation of genetic parameters related to yield and its components, six tobacco genotypes was crossed in half -diallel mating design. In this study, the F2 progenies and their parents were evaluated in a randomized complete block design with three replications. The results of analysis of variance indicated a significant difference between genotypes fo...
متن کاملGAP: A graphical environment for matrix visualization and cluster analysis
GAP is a Java-designed exploratory data analysis (EDA) software for matrix visualization (MV) and clustering of high-dimensional data sets. It provides direct visual perception for exploring structure of a given data matrix and its corresponding proximity matrices, for variables and subjects. Various matrix permutation algorithms and clustering methods with validation indices are implemented fo...
متن کاملAPG: An Efficient Software Program for Amp-Pl Thermobarometry Based on Graphical Method
Geothermobarometry equations are based on thermodynamic principles and appear in single or multi-variant functions. The number of variants for a specific composition or reaction usually is reduced into 2 involving temperature (T) and pressure (P). Since most of planned equations have two passive or variant P and T, using these equations should be with special care. It is very effective to use g...

Background and objectives: Determining the minimum number of samples and the minimum parameters to be measured that provide acceptable results is one of the most basic decisions that rangeland scientists need to make. Methods for determining the number of samples in rangeland vegetation measurements are different. graphical methods and statistical characteristics are the most common methods by...
متن کاملA Complementary Graphical Method for Reducing and Analyzing Large Data Sets
Objectives—Graphical displays can make data more understandable; however, large graphs can challenge human comprehension. We have previously described a filtering method to provide high-level summary views of large data sets. In this paper we demonstrate our method for setting and selecting thresholds to limit graph size while retaining important information by applying it to large single and p...
