    how to remove the outlier samples in gene microarray analysis

    We used principal component (PC) analysis to identify and remove outlier
    samples. We converted each sample into a z score statistic, based on the
    squared distance of its 1st PC from the population mean. The z statistic
    was converted to a false-discovery rate with the Gaussian cumulative
    distribution and the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (Benjamini and Hochberg,
    1995). Samples falling below an FDR of 0.2 were designated at outliers and
    removed. This filtering procedure was performed iteratively until no samples
    were determined to be an outlier. A total of 24 samples were removed in this
    manner.


    this is a method discribed in a paper, however, i cann't fully understand. what the z statistic which converted to a fdr and used as a cutoff to remove the outlier samples? we should i do step by step? z score transformation, and then ...? hope your help, thank you very much.

    Pathogen Surveillance with Advanced Genomic Tools
    by seqadmin




    The COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the need for proactive pathogen surveillance systems. As ongoing threats like avian influenza and newly emerging infections continue to pose risks, researchers are working to improve how quickly and accurately pathogens can be identified and tracked. In a recent SEQanswers webinar, two experts discussed how next-generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning are shaping efforts to monitor viral variation and trace the origins of infectious...

    This year’s Advances in Genome Biology and Technology (AGBT) General Meeting commemorated the 25th anniversary of the event at its original venue on Marco Island, Florida. While this year’s event didn’t include high-profile musical performances, the industry announcements and cutting-edge research still drew the attention of leading scientists.

    The Headliner
    The biggest announcement was Roche stepping back into the sequencing platform market. In the years since...
