A new normalization scheme for DNA microarray data, called UnitExpresion, is introduced. The central idea is to derive a precise model of unexpressed genes. Most of the expression rates in a typical microarray experiment belong to this category. Pareto probability density estimation (PDE) and EM are used to calculate a precise model of this distribution. UnitExpressions represent a lower bound on the probability that a gene on a microarray is expressed. With UnitExpressions experiments from different microrarrays can be compared even across different studies. UnitExpressions are compared to standardized LogRatios for distance calculation in hierarchical clustering.
