Optical diagnostic diagram (BPT diagram) separating our strong [O III]λ5007 compact galaxies into star-forming galaxies in red stars, composite galaxies in green crosses, and AGNs in purple diamonds. The dashed curve is the theoretical separation limit for star-forming galaxies proposed by Kewley et al. (2001), while the solid curve is the classification lower limit for selecting AGNs proposed by Kauffmann et al. (2003).
