Normalizing Observations in a Tidyverse Pipeline Using Summarized Values
Normalizing Observations in a Tidyverse Pipeline ===================================================== In this article, we’ll explore how to normalize observations in a tidyverse pipeline using summarized values. We’ll discuss two approaches: merging the summarized baseline values with the original data and adding the baseline directly within the mutate function. Background The problem presented involves analyzing experiment data with the tidyverse. The goal is to average non-treated samples for each patient, normalize all observations for each patient to the average of these non-treated samples, and efficiently reference these values in subsequent steps without hardcoding patient IDs.
