Simulation Output
Information about the simulation output is displayed in the upper,
right corner.
The outputs are grouped according to the model and method used to generate
them. After selecting an item, the following operations are available in
the toolbar:
-
Delete the output.
-
Move the selection up in the list.
-
Move the selection down in the
list.
-
Open the plot configuration window
which allows one to choose the output and kind of plot to generate.
-
Export the selected output as
a gnuplot data file and
script. Note that working with the plot configuration window is
likely more convenient, but some may prefer to work with gnuplot.
This option will create the files x.dat and
x.gnu for a specified base name x. You can use
gnuplot to generate graphs
with the shell command "gnuplot x.gnu". For trajectory output
this will create
the files x-Populations.jpg and x-Reactions.jpg
that plot the populations and reaction counts, respectively. It will
also create plots for each species and each reaction.
For histogram output it will generate graphs of each histogram.
Note that you can set some plotting options through the preferences button
in the main tool bar.
-
Display the
species populations or reaction counts in a table.
-
Calculate the
distance between histograms. This button opens a frame that allows you to
select individual histograms or sets of histograms.
-
Test the hypothesis that two species
populations have the same mean. This button opens the p-value
analysis window. One may select species (in the same or different
simulation outputs) and statistically test the null hypothesis
that the means are equal. See the
Birth-Death section in the
DSMTS chapter for an example.
-
Open the data export
configuration window. One may export data as
comma-separated values
(CSV)
or as a text file.
These can be imported into spreadsheet programs like
Calc,
Numbers, or
Excel.
