Output Description

Illumina Copy Number Input Engine

Running this process for the Illumina_CNV370_Samples_Confidential.txt example generates the Results window shown below. Refer to the Illumina Copy Number Input Engine process description for more information.

Note: For this example, R, X, Y, Log_R_Ratio, LOH_Score, and CNV_Value were specified in the Columns to Include option.

The Results window contains the following elements:

Output Data

This process generates the following data sets:

Intensity Data Set: (Also know as the Copy Number Data Set or the Output Data Set). This data set contains the data from the input file.
Experimental Design Data Set (EDDS): This data set lists specific information about experimental details for each of the arrays. Refer to Experimental Design Data Set (EDDS) for more information about this data set. Note: There can be more that one EDDS depending on the columns specified in the Columns to Include option. In this example a separate EDDS was generated for analysis of data in the Log_R_Ratio column.
XY Data Set: This data set contains the intensity data for the individuals in the sample. This data set only contains the X and Y measures (assuming that these measures are present in the text file exported from BeadStudio). This is a tall data set, with SNPs listed in rows, and individuals listed in the columns. There are two rows per SNP; one row lists the intensity value for X (the normalized intensity for the A allele) while the second row lists the intensity value for Y (the normalized intensity for the B allele). An Allele column in this data set identifies the allele whose intensity is listed in each row
XY EDDS: This data set lists experimental details needed for further analysis of the data contained in the XY Data Set.

Note: You can view the data in a file or data set by clicking either or (when the data set is very large).
