Figure 1From: Statistical tools for synthesizing lists of differentially expressed features in related experimentsTypical plots of T(q) and R(q) for associated experiments (case A1). The two associated experiments were simulated under scenario I, structure A, with true differences drawn from a Ga(2.5,0.4) and noise experiment specific of 0.5 and 0.8, respectively (signal-to-noise ratio = 9.6). The left plot shows the distribution of T(q) and the right one shows the distribution of R(q) with Bayesian credibility intervals at 95%. T(q) shows a deviation from 1 for a p value between 0.01 and 0.5. T(qmax) is 2.6 and corresponds to a threshold q = 0.01. R(q) presents the same trend, but the estimates are slightly smaller since the model takes into account the variability of the margins of the 2 × 2 table. The threshold associated with R(q) = 2 is 0.08. The number of genes in common for each ratio R(q) is reported on the right axis of each plot.Back to article page
