Abstract
BACKGROUND: With the explosion of microarray studies, an enormous amount of data is being produced. Systematic integration of gene expression data from different sources increases statistical power of detecting differentially expressed genes and allows assessment of heterogeneity. The challenge, however, is in designing and implementing efficient analytic methodologies for combination of data generated by different research groups. RESULTS: We extended traditional effect size models to combine information from different microarray datasets by incorporating a quality measure for each gene in each study into the effect size estimation. We illustrated our method by integrating two datasets generated using different Affymetrix oligonucleotide types. Our results indicate that the proposed quality-adjusted weighting strategy for modelling inter-study variation of gene expression profiles not only increases consistency and decreases heterogeneous results between these two datasets, but also identifies many more differentially expressed genes than methods proposed previously. CONCLUSION: Data integration and synthesis is becoming increasingly important. We live in a high-throughput era where technologies constantly change leaving behind a trail of data with different forms, shapes and sizes. Statistical and computational methodologies are therefore critical for extracting the most out of these related but not identical sources of data.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
