This figure shows the variance of a hidden layer node (y-axis) versus the total weight going in and out of that node (x-axis). There are 70 nodes, named arbitrarily, and colored by their association with IBD (FDR-adjusted p-value < 0.05). The most heavily weighted nodes are the most important for predicting metabolite abundances. The most variable nodes differ the most between patients. Here, we see that the most variable and most heavily weighted nodes all associate with IBD
