Examples of cumulative histogram comparison plots for hypothetical clumped (top) and regularly distributed (bottom) S-cone submosaics. The solid line is the fraction of inter-S-cone separations within a particular distance value for each mosaic versus that for the average of 100 simulated mosaics with random S-cone placement. The dashed lines represent the maximum and minimum bounds of the random simulations. If the solid line were to lie entirely between the two dashed lines, then the arrangement of the S cones in the hypothetical mosaics would be indistinguishable from random. The clumped mosaic shows significantly more short inter-S-cone separations than expected for a random mosaic, whereas the regularly distributed mosaic exhibits significantly fewer short inter-S-cone separations than the random expectation.
