Loess Normalization
Running this process for the DrosophilaAgingExample sample setting generates the tabbed Results window shown below. Refer to the Loess Normalization process description for more information. Output from the process is organized into tabs. Each tab contains one or more plots, data panels, data filters, and so on, that facilitate your analysis.
The Results window contains the following panes:
Tab Viewer
This pane provides you with a space to view individual tabs within the Results window. Use the tabs to access and view the output plots and associated data sets.
The following tabs are generated by this process:
MA Plots (Loess Normalization): This tab shows MA plots of plots for both normalized and pre-normalized data for each column.
Output Data Set
Output Normalized Data Set: This data set (identified by the appended _lnm suffix) contains the loess normalized data. This data set can be used as input for a wide variety of analytical processes.
Note: You should visually evaluate the results of this process using the Distribution Analysis process before using the normalized data in subsequent analyses. See Evaluation of Normalization Methods for a comparison of the different normalization methods with the sample data.
