我们描述了一个简单的软件工具,‘matrix2png’,用于创建矩阵数据的彩色图像。最初是为了显示微阵列数据集而设计的,它是一个通用的工具,可以用来制作简单的矩阵可视化,用于图形、网页、幻灯片演示等。它还可以用于在web应用程序中“动态”生成图像。连续值和离散值(分类)数据集都可以显示。用户可以使用许多选项,包括使用的颜色、行和列标签的显示以及刻度条。在本文中,我们描述了matrix2png的一些特性,并描述了它在作者工作中的一些有用的地方。
We describe a simple software tool, 'matrix2png', for creating color images of matrix data. Originally designed with the display of microarray data sets in mind, it is a general tool that can be used to make simple visualizations of matrices for use in figures, web pages, slide presentations and the like. It can also be used to generate images 'on the fly' in web applications. Both continuous-valued and discrete-valued (categorical) data sets can be displayed. Many options are available to the user, including the colors used, the display of row and column labels, and scale bars. In this note we describe some of matrix2png's features and describe some places it has been useful in the authors' work.
