Welcome
Welcome to
engeneTM,
a versatile, web-based and platform independent exploratory data
analysis tool for gene expression data that aims at storing,
visualizing and processing large sets of expression patterns.
engene (standing for Gene Engine) integrates a variety of analysis
tools for visualizing, pre-processing and clustering expression
data. The system includes different filters and normalization
methods as well as an efficient treatment of missing data. The
clustering algorithms included in the system range from the
classical partitional and hierarchical methods, to the complex
fuzzy ones, including: k-means, HAC, Fuzzy c-means and Kernel
c-means. Linear and non-linear projection methods such as PCA,
Sammon, and different variants of Self-Organizing Maps
(classical, Fuzzy and Probabilistic) are also provided,
including a completely novel SOM strategy aiming at producing
truly quantitative Self-Organizing maps. Novel strategies for
data pre-processing, gene and sample clustering and feature
selection are also incorporated. Additionally, a Java suite
for interactive Self-organizing Maps and partitional clustering
is also included in the system. This tool enables the analysis
of large sets of gene expression data in an easy and transparent
manner, allowing the analysis of the outcome of different
pre-processing and clustering methods at the same time.
Free access to this tool is available upon request
