... Dear Gordon, thank you for your comment-actually i was confused in the beginning regarding the appropriate interpetation of what logCPM values actually represent-thus, from my understanding-they measure the "overall expression level" of the each transcript-so any log2 cpm value below < 1 would be ...

... Hello Ryan, i had an initial "naive" thought if with increasing the prior.count argument, could reduce the variability of the logCPM values for genes with low counts, but perhaps this could shrunk the values close to zero ? My concern, was for clustering and heatmap creation, if the negative values ...

... Aaron, sorry to return again for this matter, but unfortunately i noticed various negative values in genes, not in all samples but with various frequencies:
lihc_filt <- TCGAanalyze_Filtering(tabDF = assay(lihc.exp),
method = "quantile",qnt.cut = 0.25) # a small initial filtering from the R pa ...

... Dear Community,
i would like to ask a more general question about data transformation methodologies, regarding raw RNA-Seq data for exploratory data analysis, and not for DE expression. In detail, i have identified a small 38 gene signature in a specific type of cancer/TCGA dataset, which shows som ...

... Dear Akita,
with all respect your answer is a bit confusing- why do you mention days to death with Tumor Stage ? these are totally irrelevant fields-it is very important to first define your biological question of interest-
moreover, did you find a specific problem with TCGAbiolinks-keep in mind t ...

... Hello,
just to add a small idea in conjuction to Aaron's already complete and detailed answer. If you really want raw counts/data for a specific TCGA project, have you tried the TCGAbiolinks R package ?
For example:
library(TCGAbiolinks)
query.exp.hg38 <- GDCquery(project = "TCGA-STAD",
