I am looking for some help in doing the FIRMA script output I got..Hopefully one of you will be able to help. We used the scripts outlined in the vignette ( http://www.biomedcentral.com/content/supplementary/gm248-S1.PDF) to do firma analysis. The script used is given below:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- chipType <- "HuEx-1_0-st-v2" cdf <- AffymetrixCdfFile$byChipType(chipType, tags="coreR3,A20071112,EP") print(cdf) cs <- AffymetrixCelSet$byName("NIK_2014", cdf=cdf) print(cs) setCdf(cs, cdf) bc <- RmaBackgroundCorrection(cs, tags="*,coreR3") csBC <- process(bc,verbose=verbose) qn <- QuantileNormalization(csBC, typesToUpdate="pm") csN <- process(qn, verbose=verbose) plmTr <- ExonRmaPlm(csN, mergeGroups=TRUE) fit(plmTr, verbose=verbose) rs <- calculateResidualSet(plmTr, verbose=verbose) #this is the quality assessment of the PLM fit. cesTr <- getChipEffectSet(plmTr) trFit <- extractDataFrame(cesTr, units=1:3, addNames=TRUE) save(plmTr,file="plmTr.RData") firma <- FirmaModel(plmTr) fit(firma, verbose=verbose) fs <- getFirmaScores(firma) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- however, noticed that 1) None of the firma scores are negative. In the original paper, there were many negative scores indicating exon skipping. 2) I also noticed that the firma scores are zeros for many probesets across majority of the samples 3) For some columns, even though trFit is non-zero, I get all zero firma scores I am not sure what I am doign wrong. We are using the microarray expression data (gene level data) from http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/query/acc.cgi?acc=GSE25219 Could someone help Thanks -- -- When reporting problems on aroma.affymetrix, make sure 1) to run the latest version of the package, 2) to report the output of sessionInfo() and traceback(), and 3) to post a complete code example.
