... In the fixed effects model, it is assumed that all of the observed differences between studies are due to chance, where the inverse variance is used for the weighted method. A random effects model is recommended for the ... See full document

... It should be noted that unless we are willing to assume there is no gene-specific dye effect, in which case the global dye effect is removed by the normalization model, we need a dye effect in our mixed model that ... See full document
