Background: One of the major challenges in the analysis of gene expression data is to identify local patterns composed of genes showing coherent expression across subsets of experimental conditions. Such patterns may provide an understanding of underlying biological processes related to these conditions. This understanding can further be improved by providing concise characterizations of the genes and situations delimiting the pattern. Results: We propose a method called semantic biclustering with the aim to detect interpretable rectangular patterns in binary data matrices. As usual in biclustering, we seek homogeneous submatrices, however, we also require that the included elements can be jointly described in terms of semantic annotations pertaining to both rows (genes) and columns (samples). To find such interpretable biclusters, we explore two strategies. The first endows an existing biclustering algorithm with the semantic ingredients. The other is based on rule and tree learning known from machine learning. Conclusions: The two alternatives are tested in experiments with two Drosophila melanogaster gene expression datasets. Both strategies are shown to detect sets of compact biclusters with semantic descriptions that also remain largely valid for unseen (testing) data. This desirable generalization aspect is more emphasized in the strategy stemming from conventional biclustering although this is traded off by the complexity of the descriptions (number of ontology terms employed), which, on the other hand, is lower for the alternative strategy.
