Linear regression was used to calculate a measure of spread (r) for these plots (significance level, P<0.05).
This is a scatter-plot used in [ 27], which plots significance versus fold-change on the y- and x-axes, respectively.
Data analysis was limited to descriptive statistics and graphic displays using box-whisker plots; significance testing, as well as the calculation of an interobserver agreement in the assessment of ventilation defects, was omitted due to the small study sample.
But the plot's significance is blunted by Mr. McKenzie's theatrical decisions, which forgo substantial choreography in favor of silly chase antics among Odette, Siegfried and the evil sorcerer von Rothbart.
Furthermore, Shearman and Pearson were critical of Anderson's directing style, calling it "pretentious", noting that the plot's significance was drowned out by unnecessary artistic flourishes and needless pizzazz.
A volcano plot identifies significance and magnitude of change in expression of a set of genes between two conditions.
Figure 1 shows all 3,855 genes in the permissive list (cutoff q<0.1) in a plot of significance (absolute value of d, |d|) versus log2 fold change.
A volcano plot comparing significance vs. fold change for these data is displayed in Figure 1.
They are a special kind of scatter plot of significance, represented as the negative logarithm of the P-value, of a trait against chromosomal location.
The frequency of lung lesions (number of lung nodules) for each mouse in each group is shown as a dot plot, with significance determined by a non-parametric Wilcoxon Rank Sum test.
