Which Software Is Commonly Used for Generating PLS-DA/OPLS-DA 2D Plots?
PLS-DA/OPLS-DA 2D plots are typically generated using specialized statistical and data analysis software. Commonly used tools include:
R Language
R is a powerful statistical computing and visualization tool. By utilizing packages such as mixOmics or ropls, users can conduct PLS-DA and OPLS-DA analyses and generate corresponding 2D plots.
MetaboAnalyst
MetaboAnalyst is a web-based platform that provides a comprehensive suite of tools specifically designed for metabolomics data analysis. It includes functionalities for Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (PLS-DA) and Orthogonal Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (OPLS-DA), enabling users to generate 2D plots for data interpretation.
SIMCA
Developed by Sartorius Stedim Biotech, SIMCA is a professional multivariate analysis software tailored for handling complex datasets. It supports techniques such as Principal Component Analysis (PCA), PLS-DA, and OPLS-DA, facilitating the construction of robust statistical models and the visualization of results through 2D score plots and loading plots.
MATLAB
MATLAB is a high-level programming environment widely used for algorithm development, numerical computation, and data visualization. With specialized toolboxes such as PLS_Toolbox, MATLAB enables the execution of PLS-DA and OPLS-DA analyses, providing extensive customization options for statistical modeling.
Python
Python, a versatile programming language, offers multiple libraries (e.g., scikit-learn, PyChem, pandas) that support various statistical and machine learning applications. While Python can be utilized for PLS-DA and OPLS-DA analyses via custom implementations, it typically requires additional coding effort compared to dedicated statistical software.
