we divide the work to update the database Arraymap in 4 steps:
- download the samples ID that are not in Arraymap (findSamples.pl)
- download the .CEL file of the affimetrix platforms (CELdownload.pl)
- download the soft files
- metadata interpretation
- elaboration of the soft file
- findSamples.pl: script to download the GEO samples ID that are not present in arraymap
- geometa.pl: together with findSamples.pl to find and download the metadata files of the samples
- test.pl: ?
- n_cel_file.pl: script to calculate the multiplicity of the CEL files in the sample. Hence: how many samples have 1 CEL file, how many have 2 CEL files, etc.
- celfile_review.pl: as n_cel_file.pl, but can be run only on samples that are not in arraymap
- CELdownload.pl: download all the CEL files of a given platform id
- downloadCEL_path.pl: download all the CEL files that are not on arraymap and puts them in the correct folder
