Bioconductor is a widely used open source and open development software project for the analysis and comprehension of data arising from high-throughput experimentation in genomics and molecular biology. Bioconductor is rooted in the open source statistical computing environment R. This volume's coverage is broad and ranges across most of the key capabilities of the Bioconductor project, including: * importation and preprocessing of high-throughput data from microarray, proteomic, and flow cytometry platforms *curation and delivery of biological metadata for use in statistical modeling and interpretation. *statistical analysis of high-throughput data, including machine learning and visualization,modeling and visualization of graphs and networks. This book is a dynamic document. Code underlying all of the computations that are shown is made available on a companion website, and readers can reproduce every number, figure, and table on their own computers.
