Hello everyone, I am learning normalizations, I wonder when log2 and quantile normalization is used in each situation, may I ask if there is any material that compare these two types especially in microarray expression matrix for differentially expressed gene analysis? Thank you!
log2 is a transformation rather than a normalization. Are you talking about RNAseq or microarrays or something else entirely?
Yes, I am talking about RNAseq/microarray expression matrix.
Hi landscape95,

This is typically not recommended as it runs the risk of annoying people in both communities. In addition, you cross-posted to an off-topic site, the StackExchange site for bioinformatics is:
