From: Identification of multidimensional Boolean patterns in microbial communities
Examples of non-continuous two- and three-dimensional Boolean patterns. Two-dimensional patterns: a co-presence, b one-way, and c co-exclusion patterns. X1 and X2 are the abundances of microorganisms; ε1 and ε2 represent the presence/absence threshold; p00, p01, p10, and p11 are the proportion of points (observation) located in each partition. Three-dimensional patterns: d type 1 co-exclusion, e type 2 co-exclusion, f a pattern when the presence of organism X1 changed patterns between X2 and X3 from co-presence to co-exclusion, and g the case where three organisms can be present only all together on one-by-one. Red color represents quadrants requiring the proportion of observation to exceed the minimum threshold. Red and blue quadrants are areas contributing to the pattern score
