New in geWorkbench 2.4.1 (Sep 2, 2013)

  • BLAST - Due to changes in the HTML output format of BLAST result pages from NCBI, results from an NCBI BLAST search could no longer be parsed into geWorkbench. geWorkbench will now rely primarily on NCBI's XML result format, which should remain more stable.
  • ANOVA - A problem with activated marker sets has been corrected. Incorrect markers may have been used.
  • Installation - The installer will now install geWorkbench to the user's home directory on all platforms.

New in geWorkbench 2.2.2 (Feb 1, 2012)

  • #2705 - caArray array list searchability
  • #2710 - GO tree browser returns additional markers
  • #2711 - Gene Ontology analysis fails after reloading workspace
  • #2713 - Marker set from GO does not appear in ARACNe Hub Markers box when selected

New in geWorkbench 2.2.1 (Aug 13, 2011)

  • ANOVA
  • #2618 - Control buttons repositioned for easier use.
  • #2694 - The simple range check as a test of whether data was
  • log-normalized was removed.
  • ARACNe
  • #2494 - Bonferroni correction option added.
  • The "Choose edges with hightest MI" option was renamed to "Merge
  • multiple probesets".
  • #2648 - The adjacency matrix is no longer made symmetric. Each line now
  • starts with a hub gene.
  • Similarily, the adjacency matrix, when saved to file, is not made
  • symmetric.
  • #2679 - The "merge multiple probesets" option was not recorded in
  • the dataset history.
  • Merging of multiple probesets is now just within a hub gene, not global.
  • #2684 - When a subset of markers was activated, the grid service
  • version used an incorrect offset into the marker list.
