A similar comparison can be drawn between the intensity of ALPR readings and household income.
On the other hand, neighborhoods with high percentage of Hispanics show relatively high intensity of ALPR readings consistently, ranging between 0.4 to 7.0 units.
In order to draw a statistically significant relationship, I plotted the intensity of ALPR readings against the percentage of Hispanics and African-Americans in the population.
When Oakland PD's crime data is mapped and compared against the intensity of ALPR readings, it is seen that low-income neighborhoods are also hotspots for crime, which explains why there is more police patrol in these areas.
After hybridization, processing, and scanning of three technical replicate array sets, intensity readings of probes were corrected according to their GC content using a set of random probes on the arrays, and then normalized by quantile normalization (Nien et al. 2011).
This resulted in a total of 1,375,680 gene expression intensity readings (687,840 of each channel, red and green) that were corrected for background intensity and then log2 transformed.
Figure 1 is a scatter plot of the intensity readings for a patient (P15) and the corresponding readings of a control (C1).
A total of 269,712 intensity readings from both channels and corresponding to 8,538 unique clones were retained for the analysis.
Unsupervised hierarchical clustering was then performed using average linkage and Euclidean distance between intensity readings of all probes as the distance metric.
The listeners' responses were measured two ways, first by self-reported levels of compassion and second by electrocardiogram readings to determine the intensity of their emotional response.
