This paper proposes a new and very flexible data model, called gene expression graph (GEG), for genes expression analysis and classification. Three features differentiate GEGs from other available microarray data representation structures: (i) the memory occupation of a GEG is independent of the number of samples used to built it; (ii) a GEG more clearly expresses relationships among expressed and non expressed genes in both healthy and diseased tissues experiments; (iii) GEGs allow to easily implement very efficient classifiers. The paper also presents a simple classifier for sample-based classification to show the flexibility and user-friendliness of the proposed data structur
