Normalization of cDNA Microarray Data By Using Neural Networks

چکیده
In microarray experiments, there are a variety of systematic errors to affect the measured gene expression levels. Although a number of algorithms were proposed for the normalization of different type of cDNA microarray data, they have encountered many difficulties due to the complex nonlinear sources of systematic error. In this case, a nonlinear normalization method is of great potential to deal with this difficult problem. This paper at first time proposes a novel nonlinear method for the normalization, i.e. neural network normalization (N3) approach, of cDNA microarray experiments in the community of bioinformatics. By utilizing the instinct nonlinear processing ability of neural networks, N3 is able to balance the complex nonlinear dependence between two different dyed channels in cDNA microarray experiments. In such way, we can obtain much better normalization performance of cDNA microarray data than current existing approaches. Several experiments are conducted to illustrate the validation of our proposed methods in details.

A robust neural networks approach for spatial and intensity-dependent normalization of cDNA microarray data
MOTIVATION Microarray experiments are affected by numerous sources of non-biological variation that contribute systematic bias to the resulting data. In a dual-label (two-color) cDNA or long-oligonucleotide microarray, these systematic biases are often manifested as an imbalance of measured fluorescent intensities corresponding to Sample A versus those corresponding to Sample B. Systematic bias...

A basic question in analyzing cDNA microarray data is normalization. The purpose of normalization is to remove systematic bias in the observed expression values by establishing a normalization curve across the whole dynamic range. A proper normalization procedure ensures that the normalized intensity ratios provide meaningful measures of relative expression levels. We propose a two-way semi-lin...
