Background: Microarray pre-processing usually consists of normalization and summarization. Normalization aims to remove non-biological variations across different arrays. The norm...
Background: Used alone, the MAS5.0 algorithm for generating expression summaries has been criticized for high False Positive rates resulting from exaggerated variance at low inten...
