Cluster genes and/or samples into a specified number of clusters. The result is k clusters, each centered around a randomly selected data point.
Gene expression data must be in a GCT or RES file.
Example file: all_aml_test.gct.

Preprocess gene expression data to remove platform noise and genes that have little variation. Although researchers generally preprocess data before clustering if doing so removes relevant biological information, skip this step.

Run k-means clustering on genes (rows) or samples (columns). The module creates a GCT file for each cluster and a GCT file that organizes all of the expression data by cluster.

For an overview of the results, use a heatmap to display the expression data organized by cluster.
