Summary: Microarray classification can be useful to support clinical management decisions for individual patients in, for example, oncology. However, comparing classifiers and selecting the best for each microarray dataset can be a tedious and non-straightforward task. The M@CBETH (a MicroArray Classification BEnchmarking Tool on a Host server) web service offers the microarray community a simple tool for making optimal two-class predictions. M@CBETH aims at finding the best prediction among different classification methods by using randomizations of the benchmarking dataset. The M@CBETH web service intends to introduce an optimal use of clinical microarray data classification.
