Scatter plot

An experiment can be viewed as a scatter plot (see Scatter plot view of an experiment).

You can also create a stand-alone scatter plot of two samples by going to:

        Tools | Microarray Analysis (Image expressionfolder)| General Plots (Image general_plots_folder_closed_16_n_p) | Create Scatter Plot (Image scatterplot)

In the first wizard step, select the sample ( (Image array), (Image rnaseq) or (Image rnaseqtrack_16_h_p) ) to be plotted on the X axis, and in the second wizard step, select the sample to be plotted on the Y axis.

In the following wizard step (figure 34.55), specify the values types to plot (see Selecting transformed and normalized values for analysis).

Click on Finish to launch the analysis.
