Expression Difference in Breast and Lung
Cancer
• A+C = breast cancer, B = lung cancer
• Welch’s t test for finding expression difference between breast and
lung cancer
• unequal variance in two type, Behrens–Fisher problem.
• type of samples(#) used
• A: T(5), B: T(16), C: not Normal(229)
• Negative test
• do t test on normal type of samples of both cancer types.
• type of samples(#) used:
• A: TN (N excluded)(5), B: NT(16), C: Normal(16)
• if the expression difference is significant, then we should question
whether they are all “normal” samples.
