Abstract excerpt
MOTIVATION: The analysis of gene expression data in its chromosomal context has been a recent development in cancer research. However, currently available methods fail to account for variation in the distance between genes, gene density and genomic features (e.g. GC content) in identifying increased or decreased chromosomal regions of gene expression. RESULTS: We have developed a model-based scan statistic that...
