The volcano plot for the diabetes dataset. We compare the fold change of expression levels between the IS and IR groups to the statistical significance p-values in a volcano plot. The volcano plot arranges the genes along dimensions of biological and statistical significance. The X axis is the fold change between the two groups, which is on a log scale log2(
/
), where is the mean of expressions in the IS group, and is the mean of the expressions in the IR group. As we can see, a few genes shows significant difference can be visualized in the plot.
