Hi all,

I've run EBSeq on human isoform data, here are the basic details:

- about 180K isoforms (human transcriptome)
- 5 conditions, each with a minimum of 7, but up to 14 biological replicates.
- 10 uncertainty groups (the toy example in the EBseq vignette using 3 groups is insufficient for human, so I upped this considerably).
- 10 iterations, all parameters (beta, alpha, P, reach convergence).
- patterns representing ubiquitous expression, and a single pattern for each tissue representing tissue specific expression (6 patterns in total).

When I run the QC on the method as per the vignette, fitted lines do not correspond with the density histograms as I would expect, and neither do the estimated vs simulated Q values fit correctly (see attached documents).

Does anyone know what is going on here or can advise?

Kind Regards,
David

Hi David,

Is it possible to send me the data or part of your data to look into more details of this issue?

Thanks!
Ning

Hi Guys,

Just wandering whether you find out the reasons? I just got a similar strange plots, looks like the alpha and beta values exchanged?
