Data Mining Evidences Variabilities in Glucose and Lipid Metabolism among Fish Strains: A Case Study on Three Genotypes of Gibel Carp Fed by Different Carbohydrate Sources

Figure 1

Plots of the codebook vectors of the 4-by-3 mapping for the key variables of the physiological responses from three strains of gibel carp fed different dietary carbohydrate sources using the self-organizing map (SOM). (a) The variables from 27 samples distributed by strain categories. (b) The same variables distributed by carbohydrate source categories. Code : each fan in the neuron represents a variable with different colours, and the weight of a fan corresponds to the magnitude of variable values in a particular dimension. Code : each treatment position predicted by the characteristic cluster of variables.
