✦ Synopsis


Microarray data analysis can be divided into two tasks: grouping of genes to discover broad patterns of biological behaviour, and filtering of genes to identify specific genes of interest. Whereas the gene-grouping task is largely addressed by cluster analysis, the gene-filtering task relies primarily on hypothesis testing. This review article surveys analytical methods for the gene-filtering task. Various types of data analysis are discussed for four basic types of experimental protocols: a comparison of two biological samples; a comparison of two biological conditions; each represented by a set of replicate samples; a comparison of multiple biological conditions; and analysis of covariate information.
