We present an approach to statistically pinpoint differentially expressed proteins that have quantitation values near the quantitation threshold and are not identified in all replicates (marginal cases). Our method uses a Bayesian strategy to combine parametric statistics with an empirical distribution built from the reproducibility quality of the technical replicates.

我们提出了一种方法,用于统计定位定量值接近定量阈值且在所有重复(边缘情况)中均未鉴定出的差异表达蛋白。我们的方法使用贝叶斯策略将参数统计与从技术重复的重现性质量构建的经验分布相结合。
