leukemia: Expression levels recorded in leukemia patients.

Description

Expression levels recorded for 3,571 genes in 72 patients with leukemia (Golub et al, 1999). The binary outcome encodes the disease subtype: acute lymphobastic leukemia (ALL) or acute myeloid leukemia (AML).

Usage

data(leukemia)

Arguments

Format

Data are represented as a 72 x 3,571 matrix x of gene expression values, and a vector y of 72 binary disease outcomes.
