TimeClust: a clustering tool for gene expression time series.
TimeClust is a user-friendly software package to cluster genes according to their temporal expression profiles. It can be conveniently used to analyze data obtained from DNA microarray time-course experiments. It implements two original algorithms specifically designed for clustering short time series together with hierarchical clustering and self-organizing maps.
