[BioC] Median-Interquartile Normalization

McGee, Monnie mmcgee at mail.smu.edu
Thu Nov 8 12:10:26 CET 2007


Dear BioC Users,

Does anyone have a reference for (or a good definition of) median-interquartile normalization?  Is it the same as interquartile normalization? (If not, I would like a reference/definition of both)  I have looked for such a definition in the literature, but I haven't found a satisfactory one.

Thank you,
Monnie McGee

Hello Sally,

You should try the following commands:

myfun <- function(x) as.numeric(x$Flag ==0)

RG <- read.imagene(filenames$target, wt.fun=myfun)

I hope it helps.

Good luck.

Leonardo

Hello Elliott:

I am trying to understand the problem here. From the design:

I understand that there is one sample of A9802(#5) and another of SAMPLE1
(#1).

In the contrasts, these two groups are compared (OneVOne):
> makeContrasts(OneVOne="A9802-SAMPLE1",OneVTwo="A9802-A9811",TwoVOne="SAM
> PLE1-SAMPLE2",levels=design)
>

I guess that because of the number of samples in each group being one, it
is not possible to calculate variance, and hence the error message.

This is how I understood Gordon's earlier post
(https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/bioconductor/2005-May/009056.html):

------------
The "no residual degrees of freedom" message occurs because you have
filtered out so many spots
(by setting the weight to 0) that you have no more than one spot left for
any of the probes.
Hence there is no replication left in your experiment.  No estimate of
variability can be made and
no statistical analysis can be done.
-------------

If anyone knows more clearly, please elaborate.

Hi,
I'm trying to merge the data comes from two different microarray chips (hgu133a
and HThgu133a).
I have seen that a lot of probe sets are in common in the two chip.

Have you any suggestion??

Hi Saroj,

I see so multiple arrays in each group are needed.
So I'll need to do some simpler test between the 2 arrays?
Any suggestions?

Thanks

Thanks a lot,

I am familiar with the ath1121501 package. Now I don?t know whether it 
contains informations on the probe-level rather than on the probeset-level 
(e.g. whether a designed probe still targets an updated gene model? or which 
probe-sets are obsolete and can be considered to be outdated?)

And: How can I retrieve such information without writing a blast-script to 
check every single probe against the most updated cDNA database?

Thanks for any help on this.

	and arrayweights?

Hi,

I am quite insecure if some parts of the analyis I did in Limma are really
correct and I would highly appreciate if someone could take a look and
give advice. My main concern is that I may not use the
duplicatecorrelation, dyeeffect,arrayweights and spotweights correctly.

The arrays I use are printed in duplicates with a spacing of 15000 (so
30000 features in total), and I did the imageprocessing in GenePixPro6.1.
Thereby I flagged all spots close to backgroundsignal and with a rgn r2
<0.5 bad, and only 30% of my data remain unflagged.

And this is what I did using Limma:

Since I am expecting a non-negligible dyeeffect I created an other
designmatrix and the following contrastMatrix:

>design1=cbind(DyeEffect=1, design)
>design.cont=makeContrasts("A", ?B?, ?A-B", levels=design1)

Next I estimate the correlation of within-array-duplicates:

>cor=duplicateCorrelation(K3b, design=design1, ndups=2, spacing=15000,
weights=K3b$weights)

My first question is: is it correct to use here the designmatrix for the
dyeeffect (design1 in this case)?

When fitting the linear model, I also want to use arrayweights, combined
with spotweights. So I gave following commands:

> aw=arrayWeights(K3b, design=design1)
> w=matvec(K3b$weights, aw)

Again the question: is it correct to use here the "design1"-matrix
considering the dyeeffect?

Then I fit the linear model:

>fit=lmFit(K3b, design=design1, ndups=2, spacing=15000, cor=cor$consensus,
weights=w)
>fit1=contrasts.fit(fit, design.cont)
>eb=eBayes(fit1)

Another thing I am worried about is that taking into account the dyeeffect
plus arrayweights plus spotweights might be a bit "too much"? Like in a
way "overtransforming" my data? Especially since approx 70% of my data
have a spotweight of zero. Might it be better to use the spotweight of 0,1
for bad spots, so that I do not loose the data completely?

My apologies for this long email, I tried hard to find out the answers for
myself reading the limmaguide and lots of other documents I found
googleing, but still feel quite "stuck" in my analysis process.

Thanks very much for any kind of help in advance!
Best regards
Dorthe

Yes I am a very busy guy.  I would love to collaborate with you on
this.  But I don't think that making a new package from scratch would be
a very efficient use of your time.  That is, there are good reasons why
its going to take me a little while to get it to you.  There are a lot
of things to do.  I agree that an organism based package is what is
called for here and that is what I was planning to work on. 

As for your immediate needs, all you should need for GO stats or GSEA is
an environment which you could make for yourself from the appropriate
information.  I can give you those parts in an unformated form if you
want them.   To format them into a proper environment you should only
need to wrap them up in one.

#Lets suppose that we rip off some of the info from the YEAST package to
see how this would work:
library(YEAST)
res=mget(ls(YEASTGO), YEASTGO)

#Then we could quickly make a couple quick fakey environments:
MYGO=new.env(parent=emptyenv())
for (nm in names(res)) MYGO[[nm]] <- res[[nm]]

MYENTREZID <- new.env()
for (nm in ls(MYGO)) MYENTREZID[[nm]] <- paste("fauxId", nm)

#Then we could package them up into a local environments:
MYpkg <- new.env(parent=emptyenv())
MYpkg[["MYGO"]] <- MYGO
MYpkg[["MYENTREZID"]] <- MYENTREZID

#And attach them
attach(MYpkg, 2, "package:MY")


#At this point we should be able to do with these environments whatever
we need to.

I have the relevant information here from NCBI for falciparum to make
both of these environments (for real).  If you send me a personal email,
I can arrange to get it to you...

Hi Samuel,

If you just want to ensure the probes in each probeset actually map to 
the current genome build, then you might consider the MBNI re-mapped 
cdfs. For the ath1121501 chip there are two you could consider; the 
ath1atrefseqcdf or ath1attaircdf packages.

The probes were first blasted against this version of the genome 
(1con.01222004, file date is 08/10/2006) -- not sure what that means, as 
I am not a plant guy. The probes that mapped to a single unique sequence 
on the genome were then annotated to genes using either TAIR or RefSeq 
(this is part of the package name above), so you are assured that any 
probes that are outdated have been removed.

More info is available here (note these are version 10):

http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/CDF_download.asp#v10

You can get the package(s) in one of two ways. First, you can get them 
automagically by doing something like:

dat <- ReadAffy(filenames=list.celfiles(), cdfname="ath1atrefseqcdf")

or you can download/install using biocLite() and then specify in your 
call to ReadAffy() (or justRMA()/justGCRMA() if you are going that route).

Best,

Jim

Hi All,

I have a simple problem that I can't seem to solve. I am using R 2.4.0 on 
windows. I am trying to get the GO Terms of a list of GO IDs using the 
following code. The list of GOIDs is in a file labelled SDGO.txt, which is 
a single column text file with no header.

 >summary(SDGO)

  GO:0000398:  1
  GO:0001503:  1
  GO:0001505:  1
  (Other)   :134

 >apply(SDGO, 1, GOTERM)
Error in get(x, envir, mode, inherits) : variable "GOTERM" of mode 
"function" was not found

I am sure I am way off in this code since I am a beginner of R and 
Bioconductor but I will appreciate any help?

Best,

Mete

Dear colleagues,


I m trying to use the AffyProbeMiner packages available from http://gauss.dbb.georgetown.edu/liblab/affyprobeminer/gene.html?that can replace the usual CDF probes and annotation files available in BioC.

I m using R 2.6.0 under WinXPPro SP2.
I have downloaded the files available on the webpage above in the R library folder. 
These are gz.rar compressed files and are not recognized in R windows : Packages -> Install packages from local zip files. 
I have used WinRar to uncompress these files and have copy and paste the?folders (ex: hgu133ageneccds) located in the uncompressed folders (ex: hgu133ageneccds_1.1.0) in the R folder library.??

Then if I type:
?> library(hgu133ageneccds)

I obtain the following error:
Error in library(hgu133ageneccds) : 
? 'hgu133ageneccdscdf' is not a valid package -- installed < 2.0.0?
The same is true for all of these files

Is it a problem of compatibility with R (too old files ?) ? Should I use a different way to install these packages in R 2.6.0 ?


Is there a plan to include these files and their update in BioC metadata ?


Thanks for your help
and hoping that this request will not be out of scope from this list since it is not a bioconductor package.

First, your R, and hence your Bioconductor packages are a year out of 
date, so you should update them.

  why do you think that is what you should do?

  something more like
   mget(SDGO[,1], GOTERM)

  will be more appropriate

  or sapply(SDGO[,1], getGOTerm)
  would be another alternative

It looks like you are using windows and they do not provide packages for 
windows users. The reason they are not recognized by R is that they 
won't work.

Your options are to
1) install enough tools on your computer to build packages (details can 
be found on CRAN)
2) use the remapped probe packages that are released through the 
Bioconductor project for which we do have windows packages

I have no idea what the intentions of AffyProbeMiner are, they have 
never submitted anything, and until they do, it won't even be considered,

  best wishes

Thanks for these information.

Regarding your proposal of using the remapped probe packages that are released through the 
Bioconductor project for which we do have windows packages:
1- Are those which are named CustomCDF ? 
2- The way to use these is not clear for me (if these are the one to be used) there are multiple files for a given chip and what they represent, how they have been built, and how to use these (for instance for affy chips using gcrma) is not clearly explained (unless I have missed something somewhere..?). Could it be possible to obtain a little bit of help on this from the BioC group.... 
Thanks again

Hi!

The methodology of generating these remapped probes packages is described 
in NAR, and on the the web. See:

http://nar.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/content/full/33/20/e175
http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/cdfreadme.htm

There is also an example of how to use these package at the end of 
the readme page.

In addition to Bioconductor, you can download the probe packages from:

http://brainarray.mbni.med.umich.edu/Brainarray/Database/CustomCDF/CDF_download_v10.asp

If you check the list on this site, you'll see that there are several 
packages for the same chip. These packages are based on different genome 
features (gene or transcript) or on different databases (Unigene, RefSeq, 
Entrez Gene, Ensembl, Vega).

Note that in order to be able to use GCRMA, you need to install both CDF 
and probe packages for your chip.

Best wishes,
Jarno

Hello everybody, I have a problem in doing a cluster with Heatmap. Briefly, I want a cluster with fixed column order and row order depending on the dendrogram produced by the clustering method. BUT, it seems that the row sorting is not optimal, that is genes with similar expression profiles are not group tpgrther but spread. This is the code I used: > mydist <- function(x) cor.dist(x)> myhclust <- function(x) hclust(x, method='average')> heatmap(exprs(exampleSet),Colv=NA, dist=mydist, hclust=myhclust) > sessionInfo()R version 2.5.0 (2007-04-23) i386-pc-mingw32 locale:LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252;LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252;LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252;LC_NUMERIC=C;LC_TIME=English_United States.1252attached base packages:[1] 'splines'   'tools'     'stats'     'graphics'  'grDevices' 'utils'    [7] 'datasets'  'methods'   'base'     other attached packages:    bioDist          GO  genefilter    survival         ALL   Rgraphviz geneplotter     '1.8.0!
 '    '1.16.0'    '1.14.1'      '2.31'     '1.4.3'    '1.14.1'    '1.14.0'     lattice    annotate     Biobase        RBGL       graph    '0.15-4'    '1.14.1'    '1.14.0'    '1.12.0'    '1.14.2' ANY idea about what I should do to have a good row sorting? THANK you in advance Regards, Alessandro
