NCI 60 Data#

NCI microarray data. The data contains expression levels on 6830 genes from 64 cancer cell lines. Cancer type is also recorded.

The format is a list containing two elements: ‘data’ and ‘labs’.

  • data: is a 64 by 6830 matrix of the expression values while

  • labs: is a vector listing the cancer types for the 64 cell lines.

Source#

The data come from Ross et al. (Nat Genet., 2000). More information can be obtained at http://genome-www.stanford.edu/nci60.
