Abstract
Background: High-density oligonucleotide arrays have become a valuable tool for high-
throughput gene expression profiling. Increasing the array information density and improving the
analysis algorithms are two important computational research topics.
Results: A new algorithm, Match-Only Integral Distribution (MOID), was developed to analyze
high-density oligonucleotide arrays. Using known data from both spiking experiments and no-
change experiments performed with Affymetrix GeneChip® arrays, MOID and the Affymetrix
