Eisen et al. Yeast
This dataset was constructed by integrating the Eisen et al. gene expression data for 2465 Yeast genes under 79 biological conditions and 658 annotations of these genes:
- The 79 gene expression data of Eisen et al. (1998) correspond to 4 experiments on cell cycle, sporulation, temperature shock and diauxic shift processes. These measurements were discretized using the Nordi algorithm with a 95% confidence level.
- The 658 gene annotations were extracted from 5 biological data sources: 24 GO Slim terms, 14 pathways, 25 transcriptional regulators, 14 phenotypes and 581 Pubmed IDs.
The resulting matrix contains 2465 lines (genes) and 737 columns (expression levels and annotations).

Detailed Description
The gene expression measurements were selected from the dataset published in Cluster analysis and display of genome wide expression patterns, M. Eisen, P. Spellman, P. O. Brown and D. Botstein, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the USA, 95:25(14863-14868), 1998.
Gene annotations were collected from the following sources:
- Gene Ontology: Extracted from GO terms (version of 27/08/2007), annotations (version of 24/08/2007) and GO Slim terms.
- Literature: Yeast genes and Pubmed IDs associations (version of 8/08/2007)
- Pathways: Information on the metabolic pathways in which each gene is involved (version of 9/08/2007).
- Phenotypes: Annotations were retrieved from the Saccharomyces Genome Database (version of 9/08/2007).
- Transcriptional regulators: Information of transcriptional regulators that bind to promoter regions were extracted using a p-value threshold of 0.0005.
Experimental Results
The equivalence classes and the Informative Basis of association rules extracted from this dataset can be downloaded on the GenMiner page. The minimum support threshold was set to extract minimal non-redundant association rules concerning at least 7 genes. The minimum confidence threshold defining the minimal precision of extracted association rules was set to 50%.
