Targeted Projection Pursuit Tool for Gene Expression Visualisation

A tool is introduced that uses a novel technique to enable users to explore two-dimensional views of high dimensional gene expression data sets. Unlike other such tools, the interface is intuitive and efficient, allowing the user to easily select views that meet their requirements. The tool is tested on publicly available gene expression data sets and demonstrated to find views that show the seperation of gene expression data sets into classes more effectively than standard dimension-reduction methods.
