cancer {simone} | R Documentation |
This gene expression data set was provided by Hess et al. It concerns one hundred thirty-three patients with stage I–III breast cancer. Patients were treated with chemotherapy prior to surgery. Patient response to the treatment can be classified as either a pathologic complete response (pCR) or residual disease (not-pCR). Hess et al developed and tested a reliable multigene predictor for treatment response on this data set, composed by a set of 26 genes having a high predictive value.
The data set is split into 2 parts (pCR and not pCR), on which network inference algorithms should be applied independently: only individuals from the same classes should be consider as independent and identically distributed.
data(cancer)
cancer.full

rows and 26 columns).
cancer.pcr
is a data.frame of pCR data (34 rows and 26
columns).
cancer.notpcr
is a data.frame of not-pCR data (99 rows and 26
columns).
gene.names
is a vector of names of the 26 selected genes.
