Hi,
I don't think this is a g77 error, this is a linker error. I use redhat
linux myself so
I don't know much about the mandrake distribution. I would suggest first
following Laurent's advice and make sure that the readline libs are
installed on your system. As Laurent also comments nothing in
bioconductor is dependent on hexbin. But this will soon change and
hexagons will rule the world, na just kidding. If installing readline and
readline_devel doesn't help email again and i will see if we can't get
this debugged.

Hello Bioconductor Users,

Sorry to bother you, but I have a couple of quick questions on the affy
package that I have been unable to answer by reading through the textual
description of affy available on the bioconductor website and the recent
papers on the subject. Iin general, am very impressed with the noise
reduction using affy and truly appreciate the Bioconductor open source
concept and packages available. I am trying to compare directly our own
homebrewed data normalization within Splus (splining of affyIDs (post MAS
summing of probes)) with the rma output. 

Question 1: Are the values output by rma to eset (and written to tab
delimited file with write.exprs) the logbase2 of the "actual" affyID values,
or are they the affyID values themselves. This is obviously important for
comparing rma to our old methods, and for estimates of "accurate" fold
change estimates- It seems to me that rma is much more precise in that much
of the noise between replicates, especially at the low end, seeems to have
been reduced in rma, but I am struggling with how to estimate back to
accurate fold change estimates.

Question 2: Is there an easy way to write out the PM values to tab delimited
file post background correction and normalization (to assess individual
probe sets prior to median polish). I am trying to work out reasons for
differences between our old method and rma for individual affy IDs.

Sincerely,

John Luckey

The values given by the rma() function are log base 2. Working in log
base 2 you could take differences and then take 2^(difference) to get
fold changes. Or you could just take 2^(rma expression value) and take
ratios if you prefer.

You might find that RMA estimated fold changes are attenuated compared
to other methods. That is that the estimated fold change is smaller than
that computed using other methods. But the noise reduction at the low
end is pretty dramatic.

If you manually background correct and normalize (as individual steps),
doing something like


data <- ReadAffy()
data.bg <- bg.correct.rma(data)
data.norm.bg <- normalize(data,method="quantiles")

in each case pm(data.bg) and pm(data.norm.bg) will give pm matrices
after preprocessing. Investigate the function write.table() for
outputting the data to tab delimited files.


thanks,

Ben

I'm trying to use the mva functions dist & hclust
however after a while I get the following message:

TypVSNdist <- dist(typVSN, method = "euclidean", diag = FALSE, upper =
FALSE)
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 589776 Kb

> typVSNcluster <- hclust(dist(typVSN at h))
Error: cannot allocate vector of size 589776 Kb

I'm running R in linux, any help much appreciated

regards

Jason

Dear Jason,

We would need to know a bit more about your settings,
like what one get by doing 'dim(typVSN)' or 'object.size(typVSN)',
and also the amount of RAM your machine has....


Hopin' it helps,


Laurent
