Robustness analysis. A: Four fitting techniques were applied to each protein signal. After deleting every inner time point once, the distance from the original prediction to the prediction using the sparse signal is measured. For each protein, 6 distances are reported (number of inner time points) and summarized in a histogram. The histogram’s standard deviation is given in the top right. B: The same data was used as in A but additionally separated by the variance of the time point replicates that were deleted. C: The distance data is separated in 20 equally large bins depending on the variance of the missing time point replicates (B x axis). The standard deviation of the distances within each bin is calculated and plotted against the average time point variance
