Barycentric Coordinates
Brinley Plots

Quantile-quantile plots, usually empirically obtained from data from samples of the same size from a younger and an older population of subjects. The data in each group is ordered and the rth smallest value in Sample 1 is plotted against the rth smallest value in Sample 2. Additive and Multiplicative relationships can be read from the slope and/or intercept of these plots.

Part correlation
Partial correlation
Partial residuals
ROC or Receiver Operating Characteristic

This is a term derived from SignalDetectionTheory and relates the trade-off between Hits (or Correct Positives) and FalseAlarms (or False Positives) when using a decision criterion based on the value of a measure.
