limix.plot.qqplot

limix.plot.qqplot(a, label=None, alpha=0.05, cutoff=0.1, line=True, pts_kws=None, band_kws=None, ax=None, show_lambda=True)

Quantile-Quantile plot of observed p-values versus theoretical ones.

Parameters:
  • a (Series, 1d-array, list) – Observed p-values.
  • label (string, optional) – Legend label for the relevent component of the plot.
  • alpha (float, optional) – Significance level defining the confidfence interval. Set to None to disable plotting. Defaults to 0.05.
  • cutoff (float, optional) – P-values higher than cutoff will not be plotted. Defaults to 0.1.
  • line (bool, optional) – Whether or not plot a straight line. Defaults to True.
  • pts_kws (dict, optional) – Keyword arguments forwarded to the matplotlib function used for plotting the points.
  • band_kws (dict, optional) – Keyword arguments forwarded to the fill_between function used for plotting the confidence band.
  • ax (matplotlib Axes, optional) – The target handle for this figure. If None, the current axes is set.
Returns:

ax – Axes object with the plot for further tweaking.

Return type:

matplotlib Axes
