TLDR
This review examines the various clustering algorithms applicable to the gene expression data in order to discover and provide useful knowledge of the appropriate clustering technique that will guarantee stability and high degree of accuracy in its analysis procedure.Abstract:
Gene expression data hide vital information required to understand the biological process that takes place in a particular organism in relation to its environment. Deciphering the hidden patterns in gene expression data proffers a prodigious preference to strengthen the understanding of functional genomics. The complexity of biological networks and the volume of genes present increase the challenges of comprehending and interpretation of the resulting mass of data, which consists of millions of measurements; these data also inhibit vagueness, imprecision, and noise. Therefore, the use of clustering techniques is a first step toward addressing these challenges, which is essential in the data mining process to reveal natural structures and identify interesting patterns in the underlying data. The clustering of gene expression data has been proven to be useful in making known the natural structure inherent in gene expression data, understanding gene functions, cellular processes, and subtypes of cells, mining useful information from noisy data, and understanding gene regulation. The other benefit of clustering gene expression data is the identification of homology, which is very important in vaccine design. This review examines the various clustering algorithms applicable to the gene expression data in order to discover and provide useful knowledge of the appropriate clustering technique that will guarantee stability and high degree of accuracy in its analysis procedure.read more

Interactive dynamics of matrix adhesion and reaction-diffusion predict diverse multiscale strategies of cancer cell invasion
TL;DR: Systems-level analysis provides quantitative insights into how the diversity in matrix microenvironments may steer invasion into distinct phenotypic modes during metastasis, and how the cellular phenotype may transition between the three states.

Some methods for classification and analysis of multivariate observations
TL;DR: The k-means algorithm as mentioned in this paper partitions an N-dimensional population into k sets on the basis of a sample, which is a generalization of the ordinary sample mean, and it is shown to give partitions which are reasonably efficient in the sense of within-class variance.

A density-based algorithm for discovering clusters a density-based algorithm for discovering clusters in large spatial databases with noise
TL;DR: In this paper, a density-based notion of clusters is proposed to discover clusters of arbitrary shape, which can be used for class identification in large spatial databases and is shown to be more efficient than the well-known algorithm CLAR-ANS.
