reGenotyper: Detecting mislabeled samples in genetic data
نویسندگان
چکیده
In high-throughput molecular profiling studies, genotype labels can be wrongly assigned at various experimental steps; the resulting mislabeled samples seriously reduce the power to detect the genetic basis of phenotypic variation. We have developed an approach to detect potential mislabeling, recover the "ideal" genotype and identify "best-matched" labels for mislabeled samples. On average, we identified 4% of samples as mislabeled in eight published datasets, highlighting the necessity of applying a "data cleaning" step before standard data analysis.

Microarray is a high-throughput experimental technology which has been used in many life-science areas especially in medical applications. The sample classification problem is crucial for disease diagnosis and treatment. However, the process of sample labeling can be very complex and partially subjective. Existing studies confirm this phenomenon and show that even a very small number of error s...
متن کاملDetecting potential labeling errors in microarrays by data perturbation
MOTIVATION Classification is widely used in medical applications. However, the quality of the classifier depends critically on the accurate labeling of the training data. But for many medical applications, labeling a sample or grading a biopsy can be subjective. Existing studies confirm this phenomenon and show that even a very small number of mislabeled samples could deeply degrade the perform...

BACKGROUND Mislabeled samples are a serious problem in most clinical laboratories. Published error rates range from 0.39/1000 to as high as 1.12%. Standardization of bar codes and label formats has not yet achieved the needed improvement. The mislabel rate in our laboratory, although low compared with published rates, prompted us to seek a solution to achieve zero errors. METHODS To reduce or...
