Additional File 1:

Comparison of S-Score and RMA. Plot of absolute value of S-Score vs absolute value of difference in RMA expression summaries, comparing the specified concentration to the baseline chip. X- and Y-axis projections are added to show separation of spike-in probes more clearly.

Additional File 2:

Comparison of S-Score and dChip. Plot of absolute value of S-Score vs absolute value of difference in base 2 logarithm of dChip model-based expression index, comparing the specified concentration to the baseline chip. X- and Y-axis projections are added to show separation of spike-in probes more clearly.

Additional File 3:

Comparison of S-Score and MAS5. Plot of absolute value of S-Score vs MAS5 p-values, comparing the specified concentration to the baseline chip. MAS5 p-values were transformed so that significantly up- and down-regulated genes will have p-values approaching 0. X- and Y-axis projections are added to show separation of spike-in probes more clearly.
