A suite of Perl modules for handling microarray data

UNLABELLED We describe PerlMAT, a Perl microarray toolkit providing easy to use object-oriented methods for the simplified manipulation, management and analysis of microarray data. The toolkit provides objects for the encapsulation of microarray spots and reporters, several common microarray data file formats and GAL files. In addition, an analysis object provides methods for data processing, a...

First-Class Modules for Perl

ML’s functors allow developers to write code which generates software modules at compile time. We present a system for a similar, but more powerful, feature for the popular industrygrade language Perl, which is frequently used for implementing Internet services and “glue” software. This enables the modular development of parameterized packages and classes, as well as several other features ofte...

cDNA Microarray Data Normalization

TM4 microarray software suite.

Powerful specialized software is essential for managing, quantifying, and ultimately deriving scientific insight from results of a microarray experiment. We have developed a suite of software applications, known as TM4, to support such gene expression studies. The suite consists of open-source tools for data management and reporting, image analysis, normalization and pipeline control, and data ...

The Bioperl toolkit: Perl modules for the life sciences.

The Bioperl project is an international open-source collaboration of biologists, bioinformaticians, and computer scientists that has evolved over the past 7 yr into the most comprehensive library of Perl modules available for managing and manipulating life-science information. Bioperl provides an easy-to-use, stable, and consistent programming interface for bioinformatics application programmer...
