Robustness of Different Normalization Approaches
1 answer
Yes, @ATpoint was asking for a reference to support your supposition: "TMM normalization is more robust than RLE". You can read about about the differences in "In Papyro Comparison of TMM (edgeR), RLE (DESeq2), and MRN Normalization Methods" and "Why are normalization methods not interchangeable?". Both contain descriptions of situations that might favor one or the other.

Care to elaborate please? Is this a "citation request" to edgeR and DESeq? :)
Who said it was?
Most real world explorations of normalization methods find that RLE and TMM perform more or less the same.
Thanks! Maybe I should have asked: "Is TMM more robust than RLE?" If yes, in what situations?
