3. The method of claim 2 , comprising determining a selection event to superimpose the first plot and the second plot.

4. The method of claim 1 , comprising:

obtaining a spillover matrix comprising the spillover values; and

generating the view of the spillover editor using the spillover matrix and/or an inverse matrix of the spillover matrix.

5. The method of claim 4 , wherein the spillover matrix is a default unadjusted spillover matrix.

6. The method of claim 4 , wherein the spillover matrix is a first adjusted spillover matrix.

7. The method of claim 1 , comprising:

determining a second adjusted spillover matrix comprising the adjusted spillover value from the spillover matrix; and

generating the first adjusted view of the spillover editor using the second adjusted spillover matrix.

8. The method of claim 7 , comprising:

determining an inverse matrix of the second adjusted spillover matrix, wherein generating the first adjusted view of the spillover editor comprises generating the first adjusted view of the spillover editor using the inverse matrix of the second adjusted spillover matrix.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plot comprises an

uncompensated plot, and wherein the second plot comprises a compensated plot generated using the adjusted spillover value.

10. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plot comprises a compensated plot generated using the spillover value corresponding to the adjusted spillover value, and wherein the second plot comprises a compensated plot generated using the adjusted spillover value.

11. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plot and/or the second plot comprises a bivariate plot related to the fluorophores represented by the first plot.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the bivariate plot comprises a distribution of multi-dimensional event data related to the fluorophores represented by the bivariate plot and associated with a plurality of cells.

13. The method of claim 11 , wherein the bivariate plot comprises a distribution of multi-dimensional event data related to the fluorophores represented by the bivariate plot and associated with one or more cells of interest of a plurality of cells.

14. The method of claim 13 , comprising:

causing display a population hierarchy of a plurality of cell types of the plurality of cells determined using the multi-dimensional event data; and

receiving a selection event of one or more of the plurality of cells types, wherein the one or more cells of interest comprise one or more cells of the plurality of cells having any of the one or more of the plurality of cell types.

15. The method of claim 1 , comprising receiving multi-dimensional event data related to the first plurality of fluorophores and associated with a plurality of cells.

16. The method of claim 1 , wherein the two fluorophores represented by each display area of the plurality of display areas are different.

17. The method of claim 1 , wherein the fluorophore represented by a column of the plurality of columns has an emission spectrum with a wavelength having the highest emission that is greater than a wavelength having the highest emission of an emission spectrum of a fluorophore represented by a subsequent column of the plurality of columns.

18. A method for displaying and editing spillover values comprising:

under control of a processor:

causing display a view of a spillover editor comprising a triangular grid of a plurality of rows and a plurality of columns each comprising at least one display area of a first plurality of display areas with a background color of the display area,

wherein each of the plurality of rows and the plurality of columns represents a fluorophore of a first plurality of fluorophores, wherein each of the plurality of rows and the plurality of columns is associated with a header information object of the fluorophore represented by the row and column, respectively, and

wherein each of the first plurality of display areas is in a row of the plurality of rows and a column of the plurality of columns, wherein each of the first plurality of display areas represents the two fluorophores of the first plurality of fluorophores represented by the row and the column the display area is in, wherein each of the first plurality of display areas comprises (i) a first plot of a plurality of first plots and (ii) two spillover value information objects, comprising two spillover values associated with the fluorophores represented by the display area, at a first spillover value information object location and a second spillover value information object location;
