Abstract

A brief overview of Tree-Maps provides the basis for understanding two new implementations of Tree-Map methods. TreeMapClusterView provides a new way to view microarray gene expression data, and GenePlacer provides a view of gene ontology annotation data. We also discuss the benefits of Tree-Maps to visualize complex hierarchies in functional genomics. Java class files are freely available at http://mendel.mc.duke.edu/bioinformatics/ mccon012@mc.duke.edu For more information on TreeMapClusterView (see http://mendel.mc.duke.edu/bioinformatics/software/boxclusterview/), and http://mendel.mc.duke.edu/bioinformatics/software/geneplacer/).
