  • cufflinks --compatible-hits-norm

    Hi,

    I am testing cufflinks with two different normalization methods: total-hits-norm and compatible-hits-norm. My understanding is that the only difference between these two methods is the FPKM denominator: one is the number of all hits, the other is the number of hits within the reference GTF. So the ratios of FPKM values calculated by two methods should be a single fixed number, which is the ratio of hits. But, the ratios I got is a distribution. Anybody have an idea of the exact meaning of compatible-hits-norm? Thanks!

    sounds fishy. i wanna try this out and see what results i get. I'll report back unless of course someone comes in an explains it.

      Oh I am very sorry! It is my problem: one set was processed slightly differently. :-(

      Thanks, sdriscoll!

        indeed. i tried this today and the difference in FPKM values between the two normalizations was constant out to 4 decimal places.

          Strategies for Sequencing Challenging Samples
          by seqadmin


          Despite advancements in sequencing platforms and related sample preparation technologies, certain sample types continue to present significant challenges that can compromise sequencing results. Pedro Echave, Senior Manager of the Global Business Segment at Revvity, explained that the success of a sequencing experiment ultimately depends on the amount and integrity of the nucleic acid template (RNA or DNA) obtained from a sample. “The better the quality of the nucleic acid isolated...
