Effect Size or LogFC

Open ghost opened this issue 7 years ago • 3 comments

Hi Jean,

How can I calculate the effect size or LogFC. Can "mle" represent effect size?

Regards, Poorya

Hi Poorya,

Yes, lb, mle, ub represent the lower bound, maximum likelihood estimate, and upper bound of the 95% confidence interval for the expression fold change on log2 scale.

Hi, so is there a relationship between mle and lb ub? It seems that lb and ub are not symmetric on the mle. For example, my result showed that mb = -10.909825, ub=13.789589, mle=0. Or could you please tell me is there a way to obtain the standard error of logfold change? Thanks

mle = maximum likelihood estimate of the fold change lb = lower bound estimate of the fold change ub = upper bound estimate of the fold change ce = conservative estimate of expression-fold change (equals to the min(abs(c(lb, ub))), or 0 if the confidence interval crosses 0)

lb and ub do not have to be symmetric about the mle because the underlying posterior probability density function may be skewed.

Hope that helps.
