Output Data

This process generates the following data sets:

•

Experimental Design Data Set (EDDS): This data set lists specific information about experimental details for each of the arrays. Refer to Experimental Design Data Set (EDDS) for more information about this data set.

•

Output Data Set: This data set contains the expression data and p-values imported from the input files. This data set is in the tall format: the intensity data from each array are listed in a separate column while individual spots are listed in rows.

•

Output Annotation Data Set: This data set lists on the information biological or chemical properties, such as gene identity or chromosomal location, for each of the markers/ molecular entities in the experiment. Refer to Annotation Data Sets for more information about this data set.

Note: You can view the data in a file or data set by clicking either Open or View Subset (when the data set is very large).
