Bioconductor Case Studies by Florian Hahne, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Bioconductor software has become a standard tool for the analysis and comprehension of data from high-throughput genomics experiments. Its application spans a broad field of technologies used in contemporary molecular biology. In this volume, the authors present a collection of cases to apply Bioconductor tools in the analysis of microarray gene expression data. Topics covered include* import and preprocessing of data from various sources* statistical modeling of differential gene expression* biological metadata* application of graphs and graph rendering* machine learning for clustering and classification problems* gene set enrichment analysisEach chapter of this book describes an analysis of real data using hands-on example driven approaches. Short exercises help in the learning process and invite more advanced considerations of key topics. The book is a dynamic document. All the code shown can be executed on a local computer, and readers are able to reproduce every computation, figure, and table. | Bioconductor Case Studies by Florian Hahne, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
