Tiling arrays make possible a large scale exploration of the genome thanks to probes which cover the whole genome with very high density until 2 000 000 probes. Biological questions usually addressed are either the expression difference between two conditions or the detection of transcribed regions. In this work we propose to consider simultaneously both questions as an unsupervised classification problem by modeling the joint distribution of the two conditions. In contrast to previous methods, we account for all available information on the probes as well as biological knowledge like annotation and spatial dependence between probes. Since probes are not biologically relevant units we propose a classification rule for non-connected regions covered by several probes. Applications to transcriptomic and ChIP-chip data of Arabidopsis thaliana obtained with a NimbleGen tiling array highlight the importance of a precise modeling and the region classification.
