Hi, I am analysing gene expression data using the heatmap.2 function in R and I was wondering what is the formula of the "raw z-score" bar which shows the colors for each pixel. According to that post: https://mailman.stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2006-September/113598.html, it is the
(actual value - mean of the group) / standard deviation. But, mean of which group? Mean of the gene vector? And actual value of that gene on a sample? I would be grateful if you could give me some more details about it or even if there is a book/manual that I could address to.. Thanks a lot, Chrysanthi. * * [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
