Weighted change-point method for detecting differential gene expression in breast cancer microarray data.

In previous work, we proposed a method for detecting differential gene expression based on change-point of expression profile. This non-parametric change-point method gave promising result in both simulation study and public dataset experiment. However, the performance is still limited by the less s...
