Overview

This organized text compiles, for the first time, the most useful normalization methods developed for interpreting microarray data. Experts examine the mathematical processes that are important in normalizing data and avoiding inherent systematic biases.

Software and Algorithms

They also review modern software, including discussions on key algorithms, comparative data, and download locations.

Latest Innovations

The book contains the latest microarray innovations from companies such as Agilent, Affymetrix, and GeneGo as well as new, readily adaptable normalization methods for expression and CGH arrays.

Open-Source Algorithms

It also lists open-source molecular profiling normalization algorithms available and where to access them.
