[BioC] [combat] UPC availablility

[W. Evan Johnson]

Kenny: The answer is yes. The Python version of SCAN provides both the SCAN normalized data as well as the UPC values. We have also released a developer version of the SCAN.UPC package that has a UPC function. Our paper for UPC is now under review, but in all cases we are seeing a mild to moderate performance improvement over the frma barcode. Also, the UPC barcode works on all Affy arrays whereas the frma version is limited.

Steve: Can you give Kenny specific instructions on how to best get UPC values from our Python or R developer package? 

Thanks!

Evan
