Hello list, I'm trying to use read counts normalized with edgeR outside R. After a DGEList has been normalized by TMM and dispersion has been estimate (at least with estimateCommonDisp) I have at least three ways to export data: cpm(y) cpm(y, normalized.lib.size=T) y$pseudo.counts Which would be the most appropriate? Actually I'm having really good results with pseudo.counts, but I would like to know your opinion about. Thanks d

Davide, I recommend: cpm(y, normalized.lib.size=TRUE) y$pseudo.counts would or should be quite similar to the CPMs, but the latter is easier to explain.

Anyway, is it ok to use pseudo counts (if I'm able to explain)? Another thing, can I contact you privately when I'll try to implement calcNormFactors and estimateCommonDisp (and equalizeLibSize) in another language?
