A Bootstrap-based Non-parametric ANOVA Method with Applications to Factorial Microarray Data
نویسنده
چکیده
Many microarray experiments have factorial designs, but there are few statistical methods developed explicitly to handle the factorial analysis in these experiments. We propose a bootstrap-based non-parametric ANOVA (NANOVA) method and a gene classification algorithm to classify genes into different groups according to the factor effects. The proposed method encompasses one-way and two-way models, as well as balanced and unbalanced experimental designs. False discovery rate (FDR) estimation is embedded in the procedure, and the method is robust to outliers. The gene classification algorithm is based on a series of NANOVA tests. The false discovery rate of each test is carefully controlled. Gene expression pattern in each group is modeled by a different ANOVA structure. We demonstrate the performance of NANOVA using simulated and microarray data.

A Bootstrap Correspondence Analysis for Factorial Microarray Experiments with Replications
Characterized by simultaneous measurement of the effects of experimental factors and their interactions, the economic and efficient factorial design is well accepted in microarray studies. To date, the only statistical method for analyzing microarray data obtained using factorial design has been the analysis of variance (ANOVA) model which is a gene by gene approach and relies on multiple assum...

The classic F-test is usually used for testing the effects of factors in homoscedastic two-way ANOVA models. However, the assumption of equal cell variances is usually violated in practice. In recent years, several test procedures have been proposed for testing the effects of factors. In this paper, the two methods that are approximate degree of freedom (ADF) and parametric bootstr...
متن کاملEstimating misclassification error with small samples via bootstrap cross-validation
MOTIVATION Estimation of misclassification error has received increasing attention in clinical diagnosis and bioinformatics studies, especially in small sample studies with microarray data. Current error estimation methods are not satisfactory because they either have large variability (such as leave-one-out cross-validation) or large bias (such as resubstitution and leave-one-out bootstrap). W...
متن کاملA Comparison of Parametric Versus Permutation Methods with Applications to General and Temporal Microarray Gene Expression Data
MOTIVATION In analyses of microarray data with a design of different biological conditions, ranking genes by their differential 'importance' is often desired so that biologists can focus research on a small subset of genes that are most likely related to the experiment conditions. Permutation methods are often recommended and used, in place of their parametric counterparts, due to the small sam...
متن کاملA Nonparametric Goodness-of-fit-based Test for Conditional Heteroskedasticity∗
In this paper we propose a nonparametric test for conditional heteroskedasticity based on a new measure of nonparametric goodness-of-fit (R2). In analogy with the ANOVA tools for classical linear regression models, the nonparametric R2 is obtained for the local polynomial regression of the residuals from a parametric regression on some covariates. It is close to 0 under the null hypothesis of c...
