Bayesian Mixture Model Analysis for Detecting Differentially Expressed Genes

Table 2

Numbers of genes assigned into each of the three clusters for six different methods of differential expression analysis. (The sum of each column within a method represents the true number of genes simulated from that cluster and the sum of each row represents the number of genes assigned into that cluster.)
