... The heat map also indicates substantial differences in the patterns of variables (markers) of different cancers (each column represents a patient, and each row represents a protein). Higher and lower protein levels are indicated in red and green, respectively; the ID of 69 proteins in the heat map (right y-axis) variables, from top to bottom, are: 7, 1, 68,8,47,36,55,37,60,48,43,50,28,51,38,3,42,58,63,46,53,31,54,17,14,44,24,21,39,40,52,5,27,11,69,65,56,57,32,16,15,13,10,26,22,62,49,6,2,41,12,45,67,59,29,4,19,64,20,33,66,61,30,23,18,35,34,25, and 9 (the protein names are provided in Table 1). are mapped onto nearby or the same neurons, which means that the selected variables provide valuable information for discriminating the samples in the feature space. ...
