METRADISC /METRADISC-XL

:: DESCRIPTION

METRADISC (METa-analysis of RAnked DISCovery datasets), a generalized meta-analysis method for combining information across discovery-oriented datasets and for testing between-study heterogeneity for each biological variable of interest. The method is based on non-parametric Monte Carlo permutation testing.

METRADISC-XL is a software for METa-analysis of microarrays datasets and heterogeneity testing.

:: DESCRIPTION

HEGESMA (HEterogeneity and GEnome Search Meta Analysis)is a comprehensive software for performing genome scan meta-analysis, a quantitative method to identify genetic regions (bins) with consistently increased linkage score across multiple genome scans, and for testing the heterogeneity of the results of each bin across scans. The program provides as an output the average of ranks and three heterogeneity statistics, as well as corresponding significance levels. Statistical inferences are based on Monte Carlo permutation tests. The program allows both unweighted and weighted analysis, with the weights for each study as specified by the user. Furthermore, the program performs heterogeneity analyses restricted to the bins with similar average ranks.
