This project is for performing standard quality tests for microarray data.
Please install:
R -> http://www.r-project.org/ Bioconductor -> http://www.bioconductor.org/ Perl -> http://www.perl.org/ circos -> http://circos.ca/
in advance for using the introduced method here. Then download both files (folder: circos-arrayQC) and follow the instructions in file "performQualityAnalysis.R", -> i.e. paste each line in an R command prompt. The results is a demo of the circos quality plot´s presented in:
Martin Koch and Michael Wiese "Quality Visualization of Microarray Datasets Using Circos" Microarrays 2012, 1(2), 84-94; http://www.mdpi.com/2076-3905/1/2/84/htm
Thanks for using this routine and please provide all usefull comments to: martin.koch@uni-bonn.de
