Understanding the Framing Process<br />
To understand the framing process in <strong>SIEVE</strong>, consider that biomarker or differential<br />
expression experiments require comparing at least two sets of raw data files, each representing<br />
two distinct biological states (A compared to B); however, to be statistically meaningful, a<br />
well-designed biomarkers study should aim to compare multiple bioreplicates from control<br />
and treatment (disease) sets, each analyzed, ideally, multiple times as technical replicates.<br />
Furthermore, presenting the results of the typically large volume of generated data in one<br />
consolidated view improves the differential analysis.<br />
This discussion of the framing process covers the following topics:<br />
• Aligning Peaks<br />
• Finding the Highest Peaks<br />
