GCRMA normalization from data frame
Hi Everyone,
I am analyzing multiple datasets from GEO, and I got the raw values. I need to perform GCRMA normalization, but this has to be from an AffyBatch object. Is there a way to directly perform gcrma or rma normalization directly on the data frame or matrix that I downloaded from GEO?
Many thanks.

No, GCRMA normalization can only be performed on the complete data available from the Affymetrix CEL files.
Data matrices from GEO are already normalized anyway, so reapplying a normalization method would be inappropriate.

CEL files not available?
