GLycan Array Dashboard

GLycan Array Dashboard provides interactive visualization and analysis of glycan microarray datasets to enable comparative interpretation of glycan microarray data.


Key Features:

  • Data Visualization: Generates grouped bar charts, heatmaps, calendar heatmaps, force graphs, and correlation maps for comparative visualization of glycan microarray data.
  • Data Integration: Supports input of multiple data files simultaneously for integration and comparison across datasets.
  • Interactive Data Exploration: Enables filtering, sorting, normalization, and exploration of glycan structures within datasets.
  • Normalization and Visualization Algorithms: Applies normalization procedures and algorithms to transform raw glycan microarray datasets into comparative visual representations.

Scientific Applications:

  • Glycan structure-function analysis: Facilitates comparative analysis to investigate relationships between glycan structures and experimental measurements.
  • Disease biomarker discovery: Enables comparative dataset analysis relevant to identifying glycan-based disease biomarkers.
  • Vaccine development: Supports comparative visualization and analysis of glycan array data relevant to vaccine research.

Methodology:

Transformation of raw glycan microarray datasets into interactive visual representations using normalization procedures and algorithms to generate grouped bar charts, heatmaps, calendar heatmaps, force graphs, and correlation maps.
