Further Information

Microarrays allow the measurement of mRNA expression levels on a genome-wide scale. Many methods and tools have been developed to extract information from large microarray datasets. Among these, clustering and classification are the most commonly used analytical techniques. Cluster analysis is an unsupervised technique in which similar objects are assigned to the same groups (or clusters). Classification is a supervised technique that requires external information of the dataset (such as tissue types, disease states, etc). In classification, labels such as types of samples) are assigned to objects (typically experiments). In this review article, we will discuss the applications of clustering and classification algorithms and survey popular clustering and classification algorithms for the analysis of gene expression data. We will also discuss the limitations of these methods and approaches to circumvent these limitations.
