It thresholds the T-statistics to provide a 'significant' gene list and provides an estimate of the false discovery rate (the percent of genes identified by chance alone) from randomly permuted data.
Here, we propose the design of a prototype diagnostic microarray with respect to control sequences and we show how a ROC analysis using percentile ranks of specific and non-specific hybridization signals can be used to establish signal detection thresholds and hybridization quality assessments for each individual microarray experiment.
Calibrating the appropriate signal and noise intensity thresholds for a given microarray hybridization requires the analysis of a set of positive and negative reference genes.
Instead, thresholds were applied by simply assuming that any changes in ambient concentrations below the assumed threshold would have no impacts on the incidence of premature mortality.
This is a somewhat more conservative approach (finding fewer homologs) which has the advantage of using consistent thresholds that can be applied to all the searches.
