UFGenie is a small, open-source, command-line program written for
MATLAB.  It is intended to assist with the topographical imaging technique
reported in the aformentioned publication.  Default settings produce color,
3-D surface plots for visualization of high density microarray data.  In
addition, the output provides useful statistical information.  Since UFGenie
represents a specific implementation of a more general plotting technique,
you are welcome and encouraged to modify it to suit your specific needs.
Our current version, and a short Readme, are available below.
