| Abstract | DNA microarray has been widely used in the field of functional genomics. The estimation of gene expression from microarray is a statistical problem where a lot of effort has been made. In this study, we focus on the summarization step of Affymetrix microarray pre-processing. We apply the Least Absolute Deviation (LAD) regression to estimate the probe- and treatment-specific effect in the widely-taken two-factor model. The median polish can be used as an approximation approach for the LAD regression in this two-factor summarization model. We show that the LAD estimator is robust in the sense that it has bounded influence where the bound is strongly associated with the RNA concentration. Furthermore, we calculate the influence bound and standard error which are used as the measure of accuracy for the log-ratio estimate. |
