EP-2197: Dose normalization in lung SBRT based on ICRU 91 and comparison to alterative normalization methods

Comparison of normalization methods with microRNA microarray.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a group of RNAs that play important roles in regulating gene expression and protein translation. In a previous study, we established an oligonucleotide microarray platform to detect miRNA expression. Because it contained only hundreds of probes, data normalization was difficult. In this study, the microarray data for eight miRNAs extracted from inflamed rat dorsal root ga...

cDNA Microarray Data Normalization

A comparison of normalization methods for high density oligonucleotide array data based on variance and bias

MOTIVATION When running experiments that involve multiple high density oligonucleotide arrays, it is important to remove sources of variation between arrays of non-biological origin. Normalization is a process for reducing this variation. It is common to see non-linear relations between arrays and the standard normalization provided by Affymetrix does not perform well in these situations. RES...

Normalization of Parents’ Response to Children’s Positive Emotions Scale

Abstract This study evaluated the normalization of the Persian version of the Parents’ Response to Children’s Positive Emotions Scale (PRCPS). For evaluating reliability and validity of this scale through random sampling, 400 mothers of 4-7-year-old children completed the PRCPS and Cognitive Emotion Regulation Questionnaire (CERQ). Evaluating internal reliability of PRCPS subscales by Cronba...

Discussion on Normalization Methods of Interval Weights

This paper is collecting the classic and newly normalization methods, finding deficiency of existing normalization methods for interval weights, and introducing a new normalization methods for interval weights. When we normalize the interval weights, it is very important and necessary to check whether, after normalizing, the location of interval centers as well as the length of interval weights...
