Heatmap is a popular visualization technique in biology and related fields. In this study, we extend heatmaps within the framework of matrix visualization (MV) by incorporating a covariate adjustment process through the estimation of conditional correlations. MV can explore the embedded information structure of high-dimensional large-scale datasets effectively without dimension reduction. The benefit of the proposed covariate-adjusted heatmap is in the exploration of conditional association structures among the subjects or variables that cannot be done with conventional MV.
