Figure 2From: Vector analysis as a fast and easy method to compare gene expression responses between different experimental backgroundsPrinciple of determining the consistency of the observed behavior pattern. The gene in panel (A) shows highly consistent regulation among the various pairwise comparisons of replicates. Hence the corresponding unit vectors add to a long sum vector. The gene in panel (B) is noisier and slightly inconsistent in its response pattern among replicates. Its vectors add to a shorter sum vector.Back to article page
