Tumor grading.

<p>Gleason grading score of the tumors for the samples used in Experiment 1 and Experiment 2. The sample on array 5 was used repeatedly on three arrays in Experiment 3.</p

The number of Monte Carlo simulations for which each region is chosen by the selection method using arrays with the same sample.

<p>The genomic location of the regions on 8q24 is on the x-axis. The proportion of Monte Carlo simulations for which the region was chosen is on the y-axis. The graph is shown with two different colourings, representing whether the region was among the previously experiment-wise selected regions (cyan) or not (pink). Those who were selected previously in Experiment 1 are shown at the top graph, Experiment 2 in the middle and Experiment 3 at the bottom. The simulations are done on the ten repeated spots for each probe for the three arrays in Experiment 3 that contained the same sample.</p

The number of Monte Carlo simulations for which each region is chosen by the selection method using arrays with different samples.

<p>The genomic location of the regions on 8q24 is on the x-axis. The proportion of Monte Carlo simulations for which the region was chosen is on the y-axis. The graph is shown with two different colourings, representing whether the region was among the previously experiment-wise selected regions (cyan) or not (pink). Those who were selected previously in Experiment 1 are shown at the top graph, Experiment 2 in the middle and Experiment 3 at the bottom. The simulations are done on the ten repeated spots for each probe for all nine arrays in Experiment 3.</p

Regions selected in first two experiments.

<p>The loci of the 20 regions selected in first and second experiments, according to hg18 and hg19 and the genes reported at these loci.</p

The proportion of regions that were selected in both Experiment 1 and Experiment 2.

<p>The underlying region was split up into equally sized regions and a fixed number of regions with the highest ratio of probes, within the region, expressed above the median, was selected. The proportion of regions that were selected in both Experiment 1 and Experiment 2 was calculated for varying length of each underlying region (y-axis) and the total number of regions to be selected (x-axis). The numbers within each cell show the exact proportions for the corresponding criteria.</p
