Scale-invariant biomarker discovery in urine and plasma metabolite fingerprints [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Motivation: Metabolomics data is typically scaled to a common reference like a constant volume of body fluid, a constant creatinine level, or a constant area under the spectrum. Such normalization of the data, however, may affect the selection of biomarkers and the biological interpretation of results in unforeseen ways.
