Comparison of Merging and Meta-Analysis as Alternative Approaches for Integrative Gene Expression Analysis
Figure 2
Multidimensional scaling (MDS) plot of the merged data set with no batch effect removal. Samples are colored based on the target biological variable of interest and the different symbols correspond to the individual studies. The figure is generated using the plotMDS function from the inSilicoMerging R/Bioconductor package [25].
