Slight variations in the amount of the initial target molecule or in early amplifications are likely responsible for these deviations. Commonly used 4- and 5-parameter sigmoidal models appear to be particularly susceptible to this issue, often displaying patterns of autocorrelation in the residuals. The presence of this phenomenon, even for technical replicates, suggests that these parametric models may be misspecified. Specifically, they do not account for the sequential dependent nature of the amplification process that underlies qPCR fluorescence measurements.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>We demonstrate that a Smooth Transition Autoregressive (STAR) model addresses this limitation by explicitly modeling the dependence between cycles and the gradual transition between amplification regimes. In summary, application of a STAR model to qPCR amplification data improves model fit and reduces autocorrelation in the residuals.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Availability and implementation<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>R scripts to reproduce all the analyses and results described in this manuscript can be found at: https:\/\/github.com\/bhsu4\/GAPDH.SO.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Supplementary information<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1093\/bioinformatics\/btaa1000","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,11,18]],"date-time":"2020-11-18T16:55:27Z","timestamp":1605718527000},"page":"5386-5391","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Autoregressive modeling and diagnostics for qPCR amplification"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"36","author":[{"given":"Benjamin","family":"Hsu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Computational Biology, University of Rochester Medical Center , Rochester, NY 14642, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Valeriia","family":"Sherina","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Computational Biology, University of Rochester Medical Center , Rochester, NY 14642, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2473-0943","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Matthew N","family":"McCall","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Biostatistics and Computational Biology, University of Rochester Medical Center , Rochester, NY 14642, USA"},{"name":"Department of Biomedical Genetics, University of Rochester Medical Center , Rochester, NY 14642, USA"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,12,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"2023062707101271300_btaa1000-B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"1395","DOI":"10.1093\/nar\/gkr778","article-title":"Validation of kinetics similarity in qPCR","volume":"40","author":"Bar","year":"2012","journal-title":"Nucleic Acids Res"},{"key":"2023062707101271300_btaa1000-B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"611","DOI":"10.1373\/clinchem.2008.112797","article-title":"The MIQE guidelines: minimum information for publication of quantitative real-time PCR experiments","volume":"55","author":"Bustin","year":"2009","journal-title":"Clin.
