Letter-Value Box Plots: Adjusting Box Plots for Large Data Sets
Conventional boxplots (Tukey 1977) are useful displays for conveying rough information about the central 50% of the data and the extent of the data. For moderate-sized data sets (n < 1000), detailed estimates of tail behavior beyond the quartiles may not be trustworthy, so the information provided by boxplots is appropriately somewhat vague beyond the quartiles, and the expected number of “outl...
متن کاملVisualizing Multiple Quantile Plots.
Multiple-quantile plots provide a powerful graphical method for comparing the distributions of two or more populations. This article develops a method of visualizing triple-quantile plots and their associated confidence tubes, thus extending the notion of a quantile-quantile (QQ) plot to three dimensions. More specifically, we consider three independent one-dimensional random samples with corre...
متن کاملGeographic Box Plots
Traditional box plots, described by Tukey in 1977, can be biased representations of geographic or spatial variables, since they do not take into account the areas associated with the elements of geographic variables. To help solve this problem, we propose and evaluate a spatially (areally) weighted box plot, a “geographic box plot,” that can be used to describe a wide variety of geographic vari...
متن کاملRLE plots: Visualizing unwanted variation in high dimensional data
Unwanted variation can be highly problematic and so its detection is often crucial. Relative log expression (RLE) plots are a powerful tool for visualizing such variation in high dimensional data. We provide a detailed examination of these plots, with the aid of examples and simulation, explaining what they are and what they can reveal. RLE plots are particularly useful for assessing whether a ...
متن کاملVisualizing Coevolution with CIAO Plots
In a previous article, we introduced a number of visualization techniques that we had developed for monitoring the dynamics of artificial competitive coevolutionary systems. One of these techniques involves evaluating the performance of an individual from the current population in a series of trials against opponents from all previous generations, and visualizing the results as a 2D grid of sha...
