Input
To start the analysis, the user should upload two files:
1. .zip folder with .CEL or .CEL.gz files. The filenames of the CEL files should match with the sample names in the meta data file. ArrayAnalysis will automatically look for the column in the metadata file that matches with the CEL filenames.
2. Metadata file. The metadata table can be provided as a .tsv/.csv file or as a Series Matrix File available from the GEO website.
You can analyse an example dataset (GSE6955) by clicking on Run example.
Output
A preview of the expression matrix and metadata table will be shown. This way, you can check whether the data has been correctly uploaded.Input
For the data preprocessing, you can provide the following inputs:
1. Remove samples (optional). Via this option, you can remove outliers or samples from experimental groups that you would like to exclude from the analysis.
2. Select experimental group. The experimental group is the variable that defines the cases and controls (e.g., disease status). By selecting more than one variable, you can combine multiple variables into a single experimental variable. This can be useful if you, for example, want to compare cases and controls for different tissues (e.g., liver and brain). As such, you can create four different experimental groups: case_brain, control_brain, case_liver, and control_liver. The selection of the experimental group will be used for the normalization (if normalization per experimental group selected) and for the statistical analysis in the next tab.
3. Select normalization method. The default normalization method is RMA. However, you can also choose for GCRMA and PLIER.
4. Select probeset annotation. By default, ArrayAnalysis will use the custom ENTREZ gene annotation from brainarray. If you select No annotation, the Affymatrix probeset annotation will be used.
NOTE: ArrayAnalysis automatically checks for potential outliers in the data. If potential outliers have been identified, you will receive a warning message. Please always check the QC plots carefully to decide whether samples should be excluded from further analysis.
Output
Data and preprocessing quality can be checked in the different output tables and figures:
1. Normalized expression matrix (interactive). The table of normalized expression values is provided and can be downloaded. The expression profile of a gene can be viewed by clicking on the table. Click here for more information on this figure.

3. Density plots (interactive). Similar to the boxplots, the density plot shows the distribution of expression values for all samples. Click here for more information on this figure.
4. Correlation plot (interactive). The correlation plot shows the sample-wise correlations. You can choose between different linkage and clustering methods. Click here for more information on this figure.

Input
Statistical analysis is performed using the limma package. To perform statistical analysis, you can provide three inputs:
1. Statistical comparison(s). You can select one or more statistical comparisons of interest. Note that the direction of the statistical comparison is usually defined as Case - Control.
2. Covariates. You can adjust for continuous (e.g., age) and categorical (e.g., sex, tissue) covariates.
3. Gene annotation. You can add gene annotations from the Ensembl database using the biomaRt package. For example, if you have ENTREZ gene IDs annotations, you can use this option to add gene symbols or Ensembl gene IDs to the statistics output. Please note that if you select this option, the time required for the statistical analysis will increase significantly.
Output
For each of the selected statistical comparisons, the following output are provided:
1. Top table (interactive). A table with the relevant statistics as calculated by DESeq2. Click here for more information on this table.
