The problem of identifying differentially expressed genes in designed microarray experiments is considered. Lonnstedt and Speed (2002) derived an expression for the posterior odds of differential expression in a replicated two-color experiment using a simple hierarchical parametric model. The...

Gene microarray technology is often used to compare the expression of thousand of genes in two different cell lines. Typically, one does not expect measurable changes in transcription amounts for a large number of genes; furthermore, the noise level of array experiments is rather high in...

We develop an approach for microarray differential expression analysis, i.e. identifying genes whose expression levels differ between two or more groups. Current approaches to inference rely either on full parametric assumptions or on permutation-based techniques for sampling under the null...

One application of gene expression arrays is to derive molecular profiles, i.e., sets of genes, which discriminate well between two classes of samples, for example between tumour types. Users are confronted with a multitude of classification methods of varying complexity that can be applied to...

We derive and validate an estimator for the parameters of a transformation for the joint calibration (normalization) and variance stabilization of microarray intensity data. With this, the variances of the transformed intensities become approximately independent of their expected values. The...

We think of cluster analysis as class discovery. That is, we assume that there is an unknown mapping called clustering structure that assigns a class label to each observation, and the goal of cluster analysis is to estimate this clustering structure, that is, to estimate the number of clusters...

Gene co-expression networks are increasingly used to explore the system-level functionality of genes. The network construction is conceptually straightforward: nodes represent genes and nodes are connected if the corresponding genes are significantly co-expressed across appropriately chosen...
