We consider any collection of microarrays that can be ordered to form a progression; for example, as a function of time, severity of disease or dose of a stimulant. By plotting the expression level of each gene as a function of time, or severity, or dose, we form an expression series, or curve, for each gene. While most of these curves will exhibit random fluctuations, some will contain a pattern, and these are the genes that are most likely associated with the quantity used to order them.
