Comparison of simulations based on the Tung dataset. The left column panels show the distribution of mean expression (a), variance (c) and library size (g) across the real dataset and the simulations as boxplots, along with a scatter plot of the mean–variance relationship (e). The right column shows boxplots of the ranked differences between the real data and simulations for the same statistics: mean (b), variance (d), mean–variance relationship (f), and library size (h). Note that the y-axis for plots of the variance has been limited in order to show more detail. Variances for the Lun and Lun 2 simulations extend beyond what has been shown
