Gary Churchill at the Jackson Labs in Maine has an R program on his website for performing mixed models ANOVA on microarray data. The only problem with this is it uses least squares to fit the model (which would include a within-subjects factor for the time effect) and would requires that there are no missing data points and all subjects being measured at the same time points. This is because the least squares solution involves inverting a matrix and missing data would make it not of full rank. An alternative approach which wouldn't be done in R would be to use PROC MIXED in the SAS stats package. This uses maximum likelihood to fit mixed models and works well. If you really want to try to do it in R, Yudi Pawitan at Dept. of Stats at University of Cork in Ireland has a book and a set of R programs which would give you a leg up on it: http://statistics.ucc.ie/staff/yudi/likelihood/index.htm -.- -.. .---- .--. ..-.

That's tough. It isn't clear what a sensible definition of absent is. Or present. Do you mean "expressed" ? "Differentially expressed" ? "sort of differentially expressed but not too weakly expressed?". For any of these, you'll need a precise definition (there isn't any in Bioconductor), and you can compute your own. (I know that MAS will make these calls; I'm only familiar with Rosetta Resolver's variant, and they don't really make sense to me -- to be precise, I know numerically how they are derived, but fail to why they realistically connect biologically or technologically without a great deal of assumptions and a wild imagination). best, -tony -- rossini@u.washington.edu http://www.analytics.washington.edu/ Biomedical and Health Informatics University of Washington Biostatistics, SCHARP/HVTN Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center UW (Tu/Th/F): 206-616-7630 FAX=206-543-3461 | Voicemail is unreliable FHCRC (M/W): 206-667-7025 FAX=206-667-4812 | use Email CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This e-mail message and any attachme...{{dropped}} ------------------------------ Message: 7 Date: Wed, 8 Oct 2003 15:47:42 +0200 From: <arne.muller@aventis.com> Subject: RE: [BioC] Affy: Present calls in an eset To: <rossini@u.washington.edu> Cc: bioconductor@stat.math.ethz.ch Message-ID: <c80ecafa2acc1b45be45d133ed660ade410b0e@crbsmxsusr04.pharma.aventis.co m=""> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1" Hi, I get your point with interpreting absent/present calls. Technically it's a nice feature, becasue one can just discard the majority of the genes on the chip for further analysis. In fact I think absent/present calls make sense in terms of biology, since just a fraction of the genes are realy expressed at a time. How to express this numerially is a different story (and I guess a difficult one). Anyway, with MAS the calls are calculated anyway, can't they? So, I'd be nice (at least for "completness") to add a "mascall" method to the exprSet objects generated by affy. What do you think? By the way, if you ignore the call, do you set an arbitrary intensity cutoff later in your analysis, or do just reley on the statistics (anova p-value or whatever)? regards, Arne > -----Original Message----- > From: A.J.

Although you didn't say so I presume you were replying to the message on time-course experiments. (You quoted 10 different messages from a digest in your reply.) Is there a reason for not using the lme function in the nlme package to obtain the maximum likelihood or REML estimates for the mixed-effects model? Even though I am one of the authors of lme I am not being coy in asking this. I'm not sure exactly what the mixed-effects model would be and it is possible that the model could be fit easily in SAS PROC MIXED but not with lme. If that is the case then we (Saikat DebRoy and I) could take this into account as we redesign lme for R.
