Abstract (summary)
To study the effect of various toxicants on cells’ growth, the Alberta Centre for Toxicology did several in-vitro experiments, and concentration response curves (TCRCs) were generated. Each TCRC represents a time series that gives the temporal evolution of the number of cells, after exposure to a chemical with a certain concentration. Here we use the wavelet transform to extract important features from the original TCRC data, and we apply self organizing maps to classify the toxicants according to their adverse biological response.
