Enhancing scatterplots with smoothed densities
نویسندگان
چکیده
MOTIVATION Scatterplots of microarray data generally contain a very large number of dots, making it difficult to get a good impression of their distribution in dense areas. RESULTS We present a fast and simple algorithm for two-dimensional histogram smoothing, to visually enhance scatterplots. AVAILABILITY Functions for Matlab and R are available from the corresponding author.

An Empirical Study on the Reliability of Perceiving Correlation Indices using Scatterplots
Scatterplots have been in use for about two centuries, primarily for observing the relationship between two variables and commonly for supporting correlation analysis. In this paper, we report an empirical study that examines how humans’ perception of correlation using scatterplots relates to the Pearson’s product-moment correlation coefficient (PPMCC) – a commonly used statistical measure of c...
متن کاملTopographical imaging technique for qualitative analysis of microarray data.
Currently, very few methods are available to easily generate scatter-plots that do not saturate with high gene numbers, effectively obscuring useful information. UFGenie solves this problem through data binning and projection into three-dimensions (3-D). This supplementary report provides a comparison of our solution against other protocols that attempt to solve the problem of data point satura...
متن کاملEnhancing scatterplot matrices for data with ordering or spatial attributes
The scatterplot matrix is one of the most common methods used to project multivariate data onto two dimensions for display. While each off-diagonal plot maps a pair of non-identical dimensions, there is no prescribed mapping for the diagonal plots. In this paper, histograms, 1D plots and 2D plots are drawn in the diagonal plots of the scatterplots matrix. In 1D plots, the data are assumed to ha...
متن کاملDensity-based motion
A common strategy for encoding multidimensional data for visual analysis is to use dimensionality reduction techniques that project data from higher dimensions onto a lower-dimensional space. This article examines the use of motion to retain an accurate representation of the point density of clusters that might otherwise be lost when a multidimensional dataset is projected into a two-dimensiona...
متن کاملLinking Scientific and Information Visualization with Interactive 3D Scatterplots
3D scatterplots are an extension of the ubiquitous 2D scatterplots that is conceptually simple, but so far proved hard to use in practice. But by combining them with a state-of-the-art volume rendering engine, multiple views, and interaction between these views, 3D scatterplots become usable and, in fact, useful. 3D scatterplots can not only show abstract data dimensions, but also the physical ...
