ABSTRACT
Currently gene expression data are being produced at a phenomenal rate. The general objective is to try to gain a better understanding of the functions of cellular tissues. In particular, one specific goal is to relate gene expression to cancer diagnosis, prognosis and treatment. However, a key obstacle is that the availability of analysis tools or lack thereof, impedes the use of the data, making it difficult for cancer researchers to perform analysis efficiently and effectively.

GEA: a toolkit for gene expression analysis
BIOKDD'02: Proceedings of the 2nd International Conference on Data Mining in BioinformaticsIn recent years, relating gene expression to cancer development and treatment has received a lot of attention. Unfortunately, the availability of effective analysis tools lacks far behind the availability of data. In this paper, we present the Gene ...
The Global Error Assessment (GEA) model for the selection of differentially expressed genes in microarray data
Motivation: Microarray technology has become a powerful research tool in many fields of study; however, the cost of microarrays often results in the use of a low number of replicates (k). Under circumstances where k is low, it becomes difficult to ...
