If your array has 48 block on it this is the expected behavior. The 
parameter tells the plug-in the number of blocks to use per group. If 
you want to normalize each block individually the value should be '1'.

[base] Lowess normalisation - Block parameter

2009-02-06 Thread Louise Donnison
Hi
I have been trying to normalise with block size 48 using the Lowess
normalization plugin. It does not appear to work for me.
It gives the same result as if I use block size 0.


I have been looking at LowessNormalisation code.
The spot spot data is ofsize 17328 split over 48 blocks.
When the code executes here the resulting toNormalise is still of size
17328, I was expecting it to be of size 361 ?


while (toIndex < dataSize && data.get(toIndex).block <= toBlock)
{
++toIndex;
}
if (toIndex > fromIndex)
{
List  toNormalize = data.subList(fromIndex, toIndex);

Is there something that I am doing wrong?
regards
Louise

The code version is BASE 2.9 using LowessNormalisation code of
@version 2.0 @base.modified $Date: 2008-09-11 22:06:36 +0200 (Thu, 11
Sep 2008) $

The problem is now being fixed, http://base.thep.lu.se/ticket/1077. 
Unfortunately this problem affects all versions of BASE2 and everyone 
are recommended to upgrade to the future 2.7.2 (or later).

The problem is localized and 2.7.2 will be released later today or at 
latest tomorrow. More details on the issue will follow in the 
announcement of the new release.


Cheers,

Jari

Thanks very much Jari.  Sorry I didn't have time to look deeper and figure out
what was wrong.  As you'll see in a few weeks we have a big project nearing
release.

cheers,
Bob.

Hi Bob,

We are looking into the issue. It looks like the BASE2 version of lowess 
is flawed. We are testing and reading publications to make sure that we 
make a proper fix. We already have a fix for the problem but want to 
make sure that we don't create new bugs. We plan to release a 2.7.2 ASAP 
with the fix.

Thank you for reporting this issue to us.

[base] lowess normalisation

2008-06-30 Thread Bob MacCallum

I've done some more tests on the lowess problem.

Please refer from now on to our development server:

http://base.vectorbase.org:8080/base2dev/
Experiment: "Male vs. female (Koutsos et al., 2007)" 

I ran the base1 lowess plugin and got a very different result compared to the
base2 plugin.  The base1 plugin results look correct to me.  The base2
correction factor plots do not look at all right to me.

Can anyone hazard a guess as to if this is a bug or are the default parameters
not suitable for my data?

Due to time pressures I think I'm going to have to switch all our analysis
over to use the base1 plugin.

many thanks,
Bob.

[base] lowess normalisation

2008-06-27 Thread Bob MacCallum

Has anyone had problems with the Lowess analysis plugin?

To me it looks like it is overcorrecting.  Where a M/A plot
is largely below the zero line before normalisation, it ends
up largely above it afterwards.

I'm using default values (including 0 for block group size).
Default values were always fine in BASE1.

You can look for yourself with the guest login at
http://fungen.vectorbase.org/base2

Experiment "Male vs. female (Koutsos et al., 2007)" is a good
small example.

I don't see a recent ticket on this (I have not upgraded in
a few months).

cheers,
Bob.
