Figure 2. Validity of our generated dataset.

Figure 2

(a) The effect of batch effect removal is clearly demonstrated using the plotMDS function. (b) The MDS plot of our merged microarray dataset shows a clear separation between different disease phenotypes (925 primary NSCLC tumors: red; 193 non-tumors: green). (c) The merging effect of the ComBat technique on the fRMA-normalized data is illustrated using the plotRLE function. (d) The local effect of the ComBat method at the gene-level is demonstrated using the plotGeneWiseBoxPlot function. A1BG gene was selected for the demonstration purpose.
