Abstract
A data mining tool is described that includes a data structure populator that stores one or more first sets of data selected for querying into a first data structure. The tool also has a query builder that builds at least a first query based, at least in part, on one or more query parameters. Also included in the tool is a query manager that interrogates the first data structure with the first query. The one or more first sets of data are based, at least in part, on experiments using both synthesized probe arrays and spotted probe arrays.
