Stack view. The stack view allows analysts to get a general overview of how the gene degree of the entire network changes across time. In the yeast cell cycle data, we observe two distinct time periods with high activity. We can also see that different functional groups contribute to the height of the stack differently at different times. By hovering over these groups, the analyst can identify the functions and observe their evolution. While there is overlap between the timing of phases, G1 occurs at the beginning of the cell cycle, so roughly time points 1–6 and 13–18. You can see that these groups are mostly active in G1-phase.
