  2. Funnel plot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funnel_plot

    In common with confidence interval plots, funnel plots are conventionally drawn with the treatment effect measure on the horizontal axis, so that study precision appears on the vertical axis, breaking with the general rule. Since funnel plots are principally visual aids for detecting asymmetry along the treatment effect axis, this makes them ...

  3. Misleading graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Misleading_graph

    Though all three graphs share the same data, and hence the actual slope of the (x, y) data is the same, the way that the data is plotted can change the visual appearance of the angle made by the line on the graph. This is because each plot has a different scale on its vertical axis. Because the scale is not shown, these graphs can be misleading.

  4. Plot (graphics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plot_(graphics)

    showing on a horizontal axis and on a vertical axis, where is a phase space trajectory. Scatterplot : A scatter graph or scatter plot is a type of display using variables for a set of data. The data is displayed as a collection of points, each having the value of one variable determining the position on the horizontal axis and the value of the ...

  5. Logarithmic scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Logarithmic_scale

    The top left graph is linear in the X- and Y-axes, and the Y-axis ranges from 0 to 10. A base-10 log scale is used for the Y-axis of the bottom left graph, and the Y-axis ranges from 0.1 to 1000. The top right graph uses a log-10 scale for just the X-axis, and the bottom right graph uses a log-10 scale for both the X axis and the Y-axis.

  6. Volcano plot (statistics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano_plot_(statistics)

    A volcano plot is constructed by plotting the negative logarithm of the p value on the y axis (usually base 10). This results in data points with low p values (highly significant) appearing toward the top of the plot. The x axis is the logarithm of the fold change between the two conditions. The logarithm of the fold change is used so that ...

  7. Horizon chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horizon_chart

    Horizon chart displaying the difference between greenhouse gas emissions of some European country and the corresponding European average for each year, ranging from 2012 to 2021. [8] When creating a horizon chart, the selection of the origin for the vertical axis, which determines the placement of the horizontal axis, is crucial.

  8. The Elephant Curve - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Elephant_Curve

    The start of the line, representing the bottom 10% of the population begins low on the y-axis and then steeply rises upward, representing the tail of the elephant. From there until the 50th percentile the line curves upward, representing the torso of the elephant. From 50% to 60% there is a sharp spike in the line, representing the elephant’s ...

  9. Dose–response relationship - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dose–response_relationship

    The more potent a particular substance is, the steeper this curve will be. In quantitative situations, the Y-axis often is designated by percentages, which refer to the percentage of exposed individuals registering a standard response (which may be death, as in LD 50). Such a curve is referred to as a quantal dose–response curve ...
