## Gene expression data from the Affymetrix spike-in experiment

### Description

The Affymetrix HG-U95Av2 spike-in data contains two groups of 12 samples. In this carefully controlled experiment, it is known that 14 genes are differentially expressed between the two sample groups, while the rest of the genes are equally expressed. In order to reduce the running time of the vignette example, this package uses a subset of 1000 genes of the original dataset including all the spiked genes with 5 samples from each group. The preprocessed RMA-normalized data were obtained from the Bioconductor 2.2 package `DEDS`. For more details about the spike-in experiment, see http://www.affymetrix.com.
