Quality Control

Click on a button corresponding to an expression quality control process. Refer to the table below for guidance.

Process

Choose this process for...

Distribution Analysis

Displaying univariate distribution results for variables, with the option of computing and overlaying density estimates

Correlation and Principal Variance Component Analysis

Computing correlations between numeric variables, principal components of the correlation matrix, an outlier analysis, and a variance components decomposition

Correlation and Grouped Scatterplots

Computing correlations and scatterplot matrices for expression measurements across groups of arrays

Filter Intensities

Replacing measurements that lie outside a typical range of values in a data set, or filtering out rows with consistent poor performance across many conditions in an experiment

Feature Flagger

Screening array data and flagging features that have unusually low signals, as judged by a sufficiently large deviation from a specified group median

Missing Value Imputation

Replacing missing values in a data matrix with values computed from nonmissing values in the same row, performing a rowwise imputation

Pseudo Image

Generating an interactive pseudo image of an array by plotting a color-coded intensity variable using X- and Y-coordinates

Ratio Analysis

Converting two-channel expression data between log intensities and log ratios

Surface Summary

Visually examining a hybridization image pattern created from specified Z variables plotted over common X and Y variables, or performing spatial background correction for microarray data.

Variable Gene Selection

Selecting a subset of genes that exhibit high cell-to-cell variation in a Single-Cell RNA-Seq data set.
