SAM Features
- Data from Oligo or cDNA arrays, SNP array, protein arrays,etc. can be utilized in SAM
- Correlates expression data to clinical parameters
- Correlates expression data with time
- Uses data permutation to estimates False Discovery Rate for multiple testing
- Reports local false discovery rate (the FDR for genes having a similar di as that gene) and miss rates
- Can work with blocked design for when treatments are applied within different batches of arrays
- Can adjust threshold determining number of gene called significant

Famous quotes containing the words sam and/or features:
“Either he’s dead or my watch has stopped!”
—Robert Pirosh, U.S. screenwriter, George Seaton, George Oppenheimer, and Sam Wood. Dr. Hugo Z. Hackenbush (Groucho Marx)
““It looks as if
Some pallid thing had squashed its features flat
And its eyes shut with overeagerness
To see what people found so interesting
In one another, and had gone to sleep
Of its own stupid lack of understanding,
Or broken its white neck of mushroom stuff
Short off, and died against the windowpane.””
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
