I think you mean 'present call', which measures whether or not the intensities of PM probes for a particular probeset are significantly different from the corresponding MM probes. This is based on the idea that MM probes measure background binding, so if the PM probes are different, the transcript is assumed to be present (or expressed). You can get these values by using the mas5calls() function in the affy package. See ?mas5calls for more information.

See ?mas5calls for more information. Hi, how would one get presence or absence calls with gcrma normalized data? Is normalizing it with gcrma and then adding the mas5calls the most sensible or only way to do it? Or is there a know cutoff for gcrma normalized data where people have measured with RT-PCR that a transcript is actually not expressed? thank you very much, Ido

Hi Ido, The presence/absence calls are calculated from the raw PM and MM probes and is done independently from whatever pre-processing suite you decide to use. mas5calls() works on an AffyBatch object, so the calls will the same regardless of whether you use gcrma(), rma() mas5(), or any combination of the options in expresso() to process your probe-level data (AffyBatch object) into one value per probeset (exprSet object).
