Allow additional RNA-seq normalization methods like TMM, RPKM, TPM, KDMM, Median of Ratios
Please describe the new or improved feature or solution you would like to see.
What would the value be to you and/or other users if this new feature is provided? Any information on ease of use, time saved, new feature value would be appreciated. If this is a feature that you have available through other software solutions, please describe that software tool.
Provide common transformation/normalization methods used for RNA-seq data to aid in the analysis of this data.
From Cols menu or right click and New Column Formula, provide transformation options that included these. Output should not include column formulas in the columns (these methods are applied to 10,000s of columns across 100s of samples/rows)
Is this an external customer request? If so, please provide the customer account name and key points of contact and users that made the request.
Yes, USDA-ARS but also common among others who work with this kind of data. used to be in JMP Genomics.
Is there a competitive software package that has this feature or solution that we should be aware of? Please provide any information you can on competitive software, including links to websites, demos, or examples.
R/Bioconductor other Gene Expression analysis tools (GeneSpring, Omic Soft, etc)
Will this impact a renewal, expansion, or adoption at a customer, and does this put an account at risk if we do not address this? Please provide reasonable detail and description of the account specific issue.
Not sure, but it could prevent new sales for smaller organizations who do not have bioinformatics departments who can generate this data for the customer.
