A post-processing algorithm for miRNA microarray data
One of the main disadvantages of using DNA microarrays for miRNA expression profiling is inability of adequate comparison of expression values across different miRNAs. This leads to a large amount of miRNAs with high scores which are actually not expressed in examined samples, i.e. false positives.We propose a post-processing algorithm which performs scoring of miRNAs in the results of microarray analysis based on expression values, time of discovery of miRNA represented by MIMAT accession number and correlation level between the expressions of miRNA and corresponding pre-miRNA in considered samples.
