Overview

The Expression Value Distribution component plots a histogram of expression values versus their frequency of occurence. It is a useful tool for inspecting the data of an array or experiment. It can display results from a single or from multiple arrays. It also allows genes showing expression within a given range of values to be selected through use of range sliders. If the data has been classified into case/control groups, a t-test can be performed within the component. The resulting t-statistics for each gene are then displayed on the same type of histogram.

Using the EVD component

  1. Read in a microarray data file such as webmatrix2.exp (see the tutorial data download page).
  2. View the data in the EVD component.
  3. ....to be continued!!....
