Abstract
Systems and methods for detecting differences in sample polymers, such as nucleic acid sequences, are provided. Hybridization affinity information for the sample polymers is clustered so that the differences, if any, between or among the sample polymers can be readily identified. By clustering the hybridization affinity information of the sample polymers, differences in the sample polymers can be accurately achieved even in the presence of random and systematic errors.
