This week, we need to do work to address a component of our application that requires immediate attention. As a result, you may experience ERA to be intermittently available. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause, and thank you for your patience as we attend to the care and feeding of ERA!

Technical report TR06-03. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are genetic markers that may be used to identify the causes and risks of cancer. The sheer volume of data generated by SNP studies is difficult to analyze by hand. Machine learning techniques have been developed to address the types of data and the sizes of data sets provided by these studies in an efficient matter. We discuss the applicability of 5 machine learning techniques to the classification of cancer patients using SNP data. The techniques include decision trees, naive Bayes, neural networks, support vector machines, and clustering methods. | TRID-ID TR06-03
