[BioC] fRMA- more issues with custom CDFs

Hello,
I'd like to try to get to the bottom of this, since the issue has continued, and it would be great to be able to use fRMA with the MBNI CDFs. 
I can try it on a Linux system since I didn't do that yet, but do you have any other suggestions for trying to troubleshoot? I certainly hope it's not an issue between 32 and 64 bit versions of R.

Thanks,
Adam Cornwell

Adam,

It seems to work fine for me (see below). Not sure what the issue is; the only difference I see between our sessionInfo() is 64bit vs 32bit.

I am a few versions behind on the alternative CDFs -- currently all the frmavecs use entrezg v16. But you seem to have figured this out based on your sessionInfo().

As to your bigger question, using the alternative CDFs doesn't violate any assumptions in fRMA, and a fair number of other people use them together. I do have to make a separate set of frozen parameter vectors for these CDFs and since they are updated fairly regularly, I am often a version or two behind. But that's not a reason to not use them (and bug me when I fall too far behind).

I'm trying to use fRMA with some U133+ 2.0 arrays, and getting errors with custom CDFs. It works fine with the stock CDFs. I've tried both robust_weighted_average and random_effect for summarization. I've also tried BrainArray CDF versions from 15 to 18 (all EntrezGene). The error is different between using random_effect and robust_weighted_average.

It seems like the combination of probe weighting based on data, and probe selection based on re-annotation would produce some nice results- if using the custom CDFs doesn't break any assumptions made in fRMA.
