(synopsis "Variance stabilization and calibration for microarray data")
(description
"The package implements a method for normalising microarray intensities,
and works for single- and multiple-color arrays. It can also be used for data
from other technologies, as long as they have similar format. The method uses
a robust variant of the maximum-likelihood estimator for an
additive-multiplicative error model and affine calibration. The model
incorporates data calibration step (a.k.a. normalization), a model for the
dependence of the variance on the mean intensity and a variance stabilizing
data transformation. Differences between transformed intensities are
analogous to \"normalized log-ratios\". However, in contrast to the latter,
their variance is independent of the mean, and they are usually more sensitive
and specific in detecting differential transcription.")
