ClutrFree facilitates the visualization and interpretation of clusters or patterns computed from microarray data through a graphical user interface that displays patterns, membership information of the genes and annotation statistics simultaneously. ClutrFree creates a tree linking the patterns based on similarity, permitting the navigation among patterns identified by different algorithms or by the same algorithm with different parameters, and aids the inferring of conclusions from a microarray experiment.

ClutrFree通过一个图形用户界面促进对从微阵列数据计算得出的聚类或模式的可视化和解释,该界面可同时显示模式、基因的成员信息和注释统计数据。ClutrFree基于相似性创建一个链接模式的树状结构,允许在由不同算法或相同算法但不同参数识别出的模式之间进行导航,并有助于从微阵列实验中推断结论。
