Figure 3

Boxplots of pairwise correlations between chips. Box plots of Pearson correlations between technical replicates at the hybridization step (Hybr; i _2A vs. i _2B chips, where i is biological replicate), labeling step (Label; i _1 vs. i _2A and i _1 vs i _2B chips), and between different biological replicates (Bio; all pairwise combinations) are shown for four image processing algorithms (dChip, MAS 5.0, RMA, GCRMA-EB). Technical replicates have consistently higher correlations than different biological replicates.
