From: Elucidating tissue specific genes using the Benford distribution

Fig. 4

Expression deviation of different gene sets from the Benford distribution: a MAE (mean absolute error) distributions across 133 lung tissues for housekeeping, tissue specific and random gene sets (individual-centric mode). A one-sided Mann–Whitney U test was computed to compare between the distributions of tissue-specific vs. housekeeping genes, and the p values are indicated in the plot. b Density plots for gene expression values according to the aforementioned categories. Gene expression values from all individuals were binned
