last gene checkboxes. All the genes between the first and last inclusive are selected.
Creating a Gene List
1. Check one or more genes.
2. Click Create Gene List. The Create a Gene List dialog is displayed.
3. Provide a Name and optionally a Description for the gene list.
4. Click OK. The gene list is created and a new item is added to the Gene Lists
navigator.

Overview
This feature provides you with the capability to merge samples based on variables.
Samples that have the same variable value (observation) are collapsed into a single
representative sample using the mean or median. Variation within each group is
captured in a deviation table that is associated with a sample merging experiment. The
standard deviation is used if the samples are merged using the mean, and the absolute
deviation around the median is used if the samples are merged using the median.
This feature can be used to handle between chip replication (where different samples
represent replicates of other samples). It can also be used to visually identify genes that
either vary significantly or hardly at all for each class. This feature can also be used as a
complement to classification. You can look at the profile of each class to help pick out
features (genes) that might assist in creating a good classifier, or to see the average
behavior of genes which have been picked out by other means such as SLAM or
ANOVA.
