The original dataset "GDS2324" consists of gene expression measurements for n = 22283 genes, in response to estrogen treatments in breast cancer cells for five groups of patients, with different dosage levels and 5 trials in each. The task is to identify the genes responding to a low dosage. The p-value for gene i is obtained by a one-sided permutation test which evaluates evidence for a change in gene expression level between the control group (placebo) and the low-dose group. The p-values are then ordered according to permutation t-statistics comparing the control and low-dose data, pooled, against data from a higher dosage (with genes that appear to have a strong response at higher dosages placed earlier in the list).
Two orderings are considered: first, a stronger (more informative) ordering based on a comparison to the highest dosage; and second, a weaker (less informative) ordering based on a comparison to a medium dosage.
The variables are as follows:
pvals. p-values
ord_high. stronger ordering
ord_mod. weaker ordering
The R code to produce the data can be found in '/extdata/estrogen_get_pvals.R'.
