Description

Test for differentially expressed genes in a three sample set-up. This code can be used with both cDNA microarrays or Affymetrix chip.

Usage

1
bridge.3samples(sample1,sample2,sample3,B=1000,min.iter=0,batch=10,mcmc.obj=NULL,all.out=TRUE,verbose=FALSE,log=FALSE,robust=TRUE)

Arguments

sample1

The matrix of intensity from the sample 1. Each row corresponds to a different gene.

sample2

The matrix of intensity from the sample 2. Each row corresponds to a different gene.

sample3

The matrix of intensity from the sample 3. Each row corresponds to a different gene.

B

The number of iteration used in the MCMC algorithm.

min.iter

The length of the burn-in period in the MCMC algorithm.min.iter should be less than B.

batch

The thinning value to be used in the MCMC. Only every batch-th iteration will be stored.

mcmc.obj

An object of type bridge2, as returned by bridge.2samples. mcmc.obj can be used to initialized the MCMC. If no mcmc.obj, the MCMC is initialized to the least squares estimates.

all.out

A logical value indicating if all the parameters should be output. If all.out is FALSE, only the posterior mean is output. This could be used to save memory.

verbose

A logical value indicating if the current MCMC iteration number should be printed out.

log

A logical value indicating if the data are log transformed.

robust

A logical value indicating if a t model (robust==TRUE) or a Gaussian model (robust==TRUE) should be used. In the case of the t-model, the degrees of freedoms are estimated.

Details

This code fits a robust Bayesian hierarchical model for testing for differential expression. Outliers are modeled explicitly using a $t$-distribution. The model includes an exchangeable prior for the variances which allow different variances for the genes but still shrink extreme empirical variances. This function DO NOT perform normalization. The data should be normalized before hands such as centering the mean expression of each experiment. More details can be found in the references below.
