Proposed move

Would anyone object to a move from SAM: Significance Analysis of Microarrays to simply Significance Analysis of Microarrays? - Eldereft ~(s)talk~ 16:56, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done. - Eldereft ~(s)talk~ 10:24, 15 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Potential False Discovery Rate Formula Error

The False Discovery rate is listed as: Median (90th Percentile) of # of falsely called genes/ Number of genes called significant. Just thought I should note that by definition the Median is the 50th Percentile (not the 90th). Thanks128.255.38.95 (talk) 18:48, 25 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

SAM calculations unclear

The images Samcalc.jpg and RandS.jpg are very low quality and quite hard to read, additionally whoever added it has not explained it properly. s is described as being computed as a percentile based on alpha but nowhere in the article is there any mention of this alpha. This section should be rewritten. I am currently researching this method and if no one has any objections will find the time to improve it.
