Abstrakt: In this chapter, an introductory description of the exploration of genomic data is given. Rather than attempt an exhaustive overview of the types of genomic data and methods of analysis, the chapter focuses on one type of data, gene expression profiling by microarray technology, and one method of analysis, cluster analysis for discovering and sorting mixed populations. This type of data and method of analysis is very common in bioinformatics. It illustrates recurring problems and solutions. And a major portion of bioinformatics dealing with exploratory genomic data analysis can be viewed as a refinement and extension of this basic analysis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
