The explosion in DNA microarray technology in the last decade has given rise to extensive biological data in the form of expression profiles of tens of thousands of genes and proteins, often from only a handful of tissue samples. The principal objective of a high-throughput experiment can be generally characterized as one of class comparison, class prediction or molecular pattern discovery. Cla...
