MAExplorer Description

MAExplorer - Java-based data-mining facility for cDNA or oligonucleiotide microarray databases MAExplorer (Microarray Explorer) is a Java-based data-mining facility for cDNA or oligonucleiotide microarray databases. Its exploratory data analysis environment provides tools for the data-mining of quantitative expression profiles across multiple microarrays.Microarray data may be viewed and directly manipulated in array pseudoimages, scatter plots, histograms, expression profile plots, cluster analyses (similar genes, K-means or K-median, hierarchical clustering, etc.), and reports. A key feature is the gene data filters for constraining a working set of genes to those passing a variety of user-specified tests and conditions. Reports may be generated with hypertext Web access to genomic databases such as UniGene, LocusLink, dbEST, NCI/CIT mAdb microarray database, I.M.A.G.E., GenBank, and other Internet databases for sets of genes found to be of interest.A major focus of this tool is interactive data mining with access to other supporting Web genomic databases. The emphasis on direct manipulation of genes and sets of genes in graphics and tables provides a high level of interaction with the data making it easier for investigators to test ideas when looking for patterns.The MAExplorer Open Java API is available for creating your own Java MAEPlugins. This enables you to add your own analytic tools as well as those created by other researchers to extend MAExplorer functionalty. These could include adding new analysis methods to the base system such as statistical tests, normalization, clustering, client-server, etc.Here are some key features of "MAExplorer":· analyze the expression of individual genes; · analyze the expression of gene families and clusters; · compare expression patterns and outliers; · directly access other genomic databases for genes of interest.NOTE: MAExplorer is released under the Mozilla Public License 1.1 (MPL 1.1).
