Abstract

Widespread use of microarray technology has led to highly complex datasets often addressing similar or related biological questions. In translational medicine research is often based on measurements that have been obtained at different points in time. However, the researcher looks as a progression over time. Our program (SPOT) helps the researcher find these patterns in large sets of microarray data. We created a software tool using open-source platforms and the Semantic Web tool Protégé-OWL.
