Motivation: High-throughput expression profiling allows researchers to study gene activities globally. Genes with similar expression profiles are likely to encode proteins that ma...
Background: Determining a suitable sample size is an important step in the planning of microarray experiments. Increasing the number of arrays gives more statistical power, but ad...
