Gene expression data from colon-cancer patients
Description
The data file contains gene expression data of 62 samples (40 tumor samples, 22 normal samples) from colon-cancer patients analyzed with an Affymetrix oligonucleotide Hum6000 array.
Format
A list of 2 variables included in colon:
X: a 62-by-2000 matrix that records the gene expression data. Used as design matrix.y: a binary vector of length 62 recording the sample status: 1 = tumor; 0 = normal. Used as response vector.
Source
The raw data can be found on Bioconductor: https://bioconductor.org/packages/release/data/experiment/html/colonCA.html.
