Abstract
The study of a metabolic pathway is focused on a limited number of genes unsuited for normalizing raw expression data, nevertheless a large number of (spike) controls and replicates may be printed within slide. We develop a linear additive mixed effect model to remove dye and spatial biases using spike controls. We adapt the iterated weighted least squares algorithm to perform model selection and to obtain point estimates of model parameters. Actual data from a very noisy calibration slide have been successfully normalized following our model.I documenti in FLORE sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
