Data
distributions
show the number or proportion of the events falling within a particular interval. JMP Clinical software presents these distributions as histograms or
parallel plots
.
Distribution estimates can also be overlaid using a
parallel plot
. The parallel plot below is generated from gene
expression
data (as determined by hybridization intensities whose relative scale is plotted on the
X
axis) from a large number of individual subjects. Each curve represents one subject. Curves show the relative proportion (plotted on the
Y
axis) of gene
probes
exhibiting specific intensity values across the experiment.
