GSE16873 is a breast cancer study (Emery et al, 2009) downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO). GSE16873 covers twelve patient cases, each with HN (histologically normal), ADH (ductal hyperplasia), and DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) RMA samples. Due to the size limit of this package, we split this GSE16873 into two halves, each including 6 patients with their HN and DCIS but not ADH tissue types. This gage package only includes the first half dataset for 6 patients as this example dataset gse16873. Most of our demo analyses are done on the first half dataset, except for the advanced analysis where we use both halves datasets with all 12 patients. Details section below gives more information.
