Hello all,
Would anyone know of a simple way to plot the heatmap in
arrayQualityMetrics on a per-channel basis, rather than the per-array
basis?
I have 16 2-colour Agilent arrays read in by the LIMMA package, but
arrayQualityMetrics shows only 16 arrays in the heatmap, rather than
the 32 red and green samples that I would expect. When one array is an
outlier in the heatmap, I do not know which sample (red or green) is
at
fault.
The code that I used is quite simple:
> library(limma)
> library(arrayQualityMetrics)
> targets <- readTargets("qc.exp")
> RG <- read.maimages(targets$FileName, source="agilent")
> arrayQualityMetrics(expressionset=RG, outdir="default", force =
TRUE,
do.logtransform = TRUE)
The directory 'default' has been created.

I also attempted a custom call to aqm.* functions. However, the
preparatory step fails:
> RGprep = aqm.prepdata(expressionset=RG, do.logtransform = TRUE)
Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) :
unable to find an inherited method for function "aqm.prepdata", for
