This is the analysis overview for Firehose run "23 June 2012".
Note: These results are offered to the community as an additional reference point, enabling a wide range of cancer biologists, clinical investigators, and genome and computational scientists to easily incorporate TCGA into the backdrop of ongoing research. While every effort is made to ensure that Firehose input data and algorithms are of the highest possible quality, these analyses have not been reviewed by domain experts.

Clustering of Methylation: consensus NMF
View Report | The 6853 most variable methylated genes were selected based on variation. The variation cutoff are set for each tumor type empirically by fitting a bimodal distriution. For genes with multiple methylation probes, we chose the most variable one to represent the gene. Consensus NMF clustering of 349 samples and 6853 genes identified 3 subtypes with the stability of the clustering increasing for k = 2 to k = 8 and the average silhouette width calculation for selecting the robust clusters. -
Clustering of RPPA data: consensus NMF

Clustering of RPPA data: consensus hierarchical
View Report | The 150 most variable proteins were selected. Consensus average linkage hierarchical clustering of 399 samples and 150 proteins identified 4 subtypes with the stability of the clustering increasing for k = 2 to k = 8 and the average silhouette width calculation for selecting the robust clusters. -
