Regarding linking to R, there is some discussion in the following thread about how that can be done using .NET (via Mathematica's built-in .NET/Link interface) on Windows. http://mathematica.stackexchange.com/questions/844/are-there-any-rlink-like-projects-which-enable-the-interaction-between-r-and Darren Glosemeyer Wolfram Research On 6/15/2012 2:32 PM, Karthu wrote: > Thanks everyone and so sorry to reply to this post very late. > > After much thought, for now, I have decided not to do anything with the TIFF image.

Since there are many Bioconductor packages for microarray analysis, accessing the R/Bioconductor capabilities from Mathematica will be just "cool". I know of RLink, but it is expensive. I would rather look for some open-source applications, if available. > > Thanks a lot once again, > > Looking forward to receive some help and suggestions/comments. > > Karthik > > On Tuesday, February 21, 2012 4:41:09 PM UTC+5:30, Matthias Odisio wrote: >> Dear Karthikuttan, >> >> On 2/20/12 1:43 AM, karthikuttan at gmail.com wrote: >>> Thanks for your reply.

I ahve TIFF, JPEG and TXT files from AFE. I want to know if mathematics comes with a built-in tool that can accept the above mentioned TIFF image and work on it. If Mathematica can accept the TIFF image, does it also accepts the Grid information file for the TIFF microarray image so that it can find out XV co-ordinates etc.?

But, pardon me, because these things have been eating my head for a long time and still I could not figure out a way to analyze the Agilent TIFF file. AFE is of course an options, but I would like to get more significant results by putting more than one software. >>> >>> Thanks a lot. >>> >> Do you think you could share your files with us?
