Abstract

The past century brought along tremendous development in statistical methods, accompanying similar advances in the biomedical field and genetics (Elston and Thompson, 2000). In the later half of 1990’s another significant leap forward has occurred in the biomedical field with the advent of gene arrays (Duggan et al., 1999). Gene arrays provide the ability to measure the presence of tens of thousands of genes at one time, and to compare this set of genes between two or more systems. The emergence of this technology, along with attempts to integrate data output with underlying biology, has created one of most lively areas of applied multivariate statistics to recently emerge.
