Sample size for gene expression microarray experiments
MOTIVATION Microarray experiments often involve hundreds or thousands of genes. In a typical experiment, only a fraction of genes are expected to be differentially expressed; in addition, the measured intensities among different genes may be correlated. Depending on the experimental objectives, sample size calculations can be based on one of the three specified measures: sensitivity, true disco...
متن کاملSample Size Estimation for Microarray Experiments
RNAExpressionMicroarray technology is widely applied in biomedical and pharmaceutical research. The huge number of RNA concentrations estimated for each sample make it difficult to apply traditional sample size calculation techniques and has left most practitioners to rely on rule-of-thumb techniques. In this paper, we describe and demonstrate a simple method for performing and visualizing samp...
متن کاملSample Size Choice for Microarray Experiments
We review Bayesian sample size arguments for microarray experiments, focusing on a decision theoretic approach. We start by introducing a choice based on minimizing expected loss as theoretical ideal. Practical limitations of this approach quickly lead us to consider a compromise solution that combines this idealized solution with a sensitivity argument. The finally proposed approach relies on ...
متن کاملSample size for detecting differentially expressed genes in microarray experiments
Background: Microarray experiments are often performed with a small number of biological replicates, resulting in low statistical power for detecting differentially expressed genes and concomitant high false positive rates. While increasing sample size can increase statistical power and decrease error rates, with too many samples, valuable resources are not used efficiently. The issue of how ma...
متن کاملSample Size Estimation for Microarray Experiments Using the ssize package
mRNA Expression Microarray technology is widely applied in biomedical and pharmaceutical research. The huge number of mRNA concentrations estimated for each sample make it difficult to apply traditional sample size calculation techniques and has left most practitioners to rely on rule-of-thumb techniques. In this paper, we briefly describe and then demonstrate a simple method for performing and...
