Evaluating the effect of various background correction methods regarding noise reduction, in two-channel microarray data

In this work, two novel background correction (BC) methods, along with several commonly used ones, are evaluated regarding noise reduction in eleven two-channel self-versus-self (SVS) hybridizations. The evaluation of each BC method is investigated under the use of four statistical criteria combined into a single measure, the polygon area measure. Overall, our proposed BC approaches perform very well in terms of the proposed measure for most of the cases and provide an improved effect regarding technical noise reduction.
