Statistical Analysis Methods for the fMRI Data
Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a safe and non-invasive way to assess brain functions by using signal changes associated with brain activity. The technique has become a ubiquitous tool in basic, clinical and cognitive neuroscience. This method can measure little metabolism changes that occur in active part of the brain. We process the fMRI data to be able to find the parts of br...
متن کاملDual KS: Defining Gene Sets with Tissue Set Enrichment Analysis
BACKGROUND Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) is an analytic approach which simultaneously reduces the dimensionality of microarray data and enables ready inference of the biological meaning of observed gene expression patterns. Here we invert the GSEA process to identify class-specific gene signatures. Because our approach uses the Kolmogorov-Smirnov approach both to define class specific sig...

متن کاملStatistical methods for analyzing tissue microarray data.
Tissue microarrays (TMAs) are a new high-throughput tool for the study of protein expression patterns in tissues and are increasingly used to evaluate the diagnostic and prognostic importance of biomarkers. TMA data are rather challenging to analyze. Covariates are highly skewed, non-normal, and may be highly correlated. We present statistical methods for relating TMA data to censored time-to-e...
متن کاملStatistical power of gene-set enrichment analysis is a function of gene set correlation structure
We develop an analytic statistical framework for examining a variety of gene-set enrichment analysis tests. Within this framework, we describe why statistical power for both self-contained and competitive gene set tests is a function of the correlation structure of co-expressed genes, and why this characteristic is undesireable for gene-set analyses. We additionally describe why past gene-set t...
