  1. Filtering and Normalizationof Microarray Gene Expression Data Waclaw Kusnierczyk Norwegian University of Science and TechnologyTrondheim, Norway

  2. Outline • Filtering: spots • removal of spots based on quality measures • Normalization • compensation for measurement errors • Filtering: genes (significance analysis) • identification of significantly expressed genes

  3. Filtering: Spots • Criteria used to remove spots • spot area [pixels] • signal/noise ratio (spot intensity vs. background intensity) • other quality measures (e.g. based on quality scores from image analysis software) • morphological criteria • pixel-level variability

  4. Filtering: Spots • Spot area based filtering • remove spots with area <threshold in both channels • problem: setting an appropriate threshold • dependent on the definition of a spot (image analysis software), and the distribution of the spot area • typical value: 10 pixels

  5. Filtering: Spots • Signal/noise based filtering • keep spots with signal / background > threshold in both channels • problem: setting an appropriate threshold • dependent on the spot and background definition (image analysis software) • typical value: sgn/bkg > 2 or, equivalent,sgn - bkg > bkg

  6. Filtering: Spots (example)

  7. Filtering: Spots • Other criteria • Intensity threshold on background corrected intensity • Spot quality measures (pixelwise distributional properties of spot and background intensities, manual morphology-based spot flagging etc.) • Replicate-based spot filtering (adaptive threshold selection based on a repeatability coefficient, coefficient of variation etc.)

  8. Normalization • Analysis of systematic errors • adjustment for bias coming from variation in the technology rather than from biology • Different sources of non-linearity • Efficiency of dye incorporation (labelling) • Print-tip differences • Non-uniformity in hybridisation • Scanning • Between slide variation (print quality, ambient conditions)

  9. Normalization • Selection of elements • Housekeeping genes, spike controls, tip-dependence, raw data, between array normalization • Method • Constant subtraction normalization (mean/median log2 ratio, iterative c estimation, ANOVA) • Locally weighted mean normalization (intensity or location dependent) • Other recently proposed methods

  10. Normalization (example 1) • Intensity dependent normalization with locally weighted mean, global

  11. Normalization (example 1) • Intensity dependent normalization with locally weighted mean, print-tip dependent

  12. Normalization (example 1) • Intensity dependent normalization with locally weighted mean, global vs. print-tip dependent

  13. Normalization (example 2) • Intensity dependent normalization with locally weighted mean, print-tip dependent

  14. Normalization • Location dependent normalization with locally weighted mean (from SNOMAD web page)

  15. Normalization • Local variance correction across element signal intensity (from SNOMAD web page)
