METHODS AND APPARATUS RELATED TO BIOINFORMATICS DATA ANALYSIS
First Claim
1. One or more processor-readable media storing code representing instructions that when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:
- select a first relationship rule based on a first combination of parameters including a first parameter and based on a hierarchical position of the first parameter within a hierarchical structure of a set of parameters from a biological category;
define a first statistical value based on a plurality of test values and based on the first relationship rule; and
define a second statistical value based on a second relationship rule different from the first relationship rule and based on a second combination of parameters, the second relationship rule being selected based on a hierarchical position of the second parameter within the hierarchical structure of the set of parameters, the first parameter being different than the second parameter, the first combination of parameters having a portion of parameters equal to a portion of parameters of the second combination of parameters.

Abstract
In one embodiment, one or more processor-readable media can be configured to store code representing instructions that when executed by one or more processors can cause the one or more processors to select a first relationship rule based on a first combination of parameters including a first parameter, and based on a hierarchical position of the first parameter within a hierarchical structure of a set of parameters from a biological category. A first statistical value can be defined based on a plurality of test values and based on the first relationship rule. A second statistical value can be defined based on a second relationship rule and based on a second combination of parameters. The second relationship rule can be selected based on a hierarchical position of the second parameter within the hierarchical structure of the set of parameters.

11. One or more processor-readable media storing code representing instructions that when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:
-
define a first statistical value associated with a test substance based on a combination of parameters, a parameter from the combination of parameters having a hierarchical position within a hierarchical structure of a set of parameters included in a biological category; receive an indicator that the hierarchical position of the parameter has changed when the hierarchical structure is changed such that an annotation value associated with the parameter is included in the hierarchical structure, the annotation value being excluded from the hierarchical structure before the hierarchical structure is changed; and define a second statistical value different than the first statistical value based on the changed hierarchical position. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16)

17. One or more processor-readable media storing code representing instructions that when executed by one or more processors cause the one or more processors to:
-
define a first statistical value associated with a test substance based on combination of parameters, each parameter from the combination of parameters being associated with at least one biological category from a plurality of biological categories, the plurality of biological categories including at least a protein category and a reagent category; modify the combination of parameters such that a parameter from the combination of parameters before the modifying is hierarchically related to a parameter from the modified combination of parameters; and define a second statistical value based on the modified combination of parameters. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24)
