rma {oligo} | R Documentation |
Robust Multichip Average methodology. This will convert an (Expression/Exon/Gene)FeatureSet object to an ExpressionSet object by using RMA strategy.

This function computes the RMA (Robust Multichip Average) expression measure described in Irizarry et al Biostatistics (2003).
Note that this expression measure is given to you in log base 2 scale. This differs from most of the other expression measure methods.
For Exon ST and Gene ST arrays, the user should be aware that the summarization is performed to the *probeset* level. The ExpressionSet returned when either Exon/Gene-FeatureSet objects are passed contain extra annotation on the featureData slot that the user should take into account for exon/gene-level analyses.
