Hi all,
For a paper, I have some results that I need displayed over a 2-D grid, i.e., each (x,y) data point has a mean value and standard deviation
value associated with it. I'm trying to figure out the best way to present this using MATLAB.
My first attempt was to create a 2-D image where each patch color represents the mean. This is fine in terms of simplicity, and can be made
to look pretty, but I'm not sure how to add in the error stats into the image space with only two dimensions to work with.
This is a printed journal? Which means you can't assume
a lot about print quality?
You could try some sort of shaded relief to indicate height
for the means, and color-encode the variance in terms of
color on top of that. A bit fiddly to do with matlab,
though. Another option might be to use color codes for
the means and alpha values (opacity) to indicate variance.
Not to be trusted with printed journals...
This has to be a standard visualization problem
in statistics? Why not check a couple of statistics
texts and see what others have done?
