This normalization is performed on observations (samples) using internal control features (genes). The internal control features, usually housekeeping genes, should not vary among samples[1]. The implementation details is as follows:

1. Compute geometric mean of all the control genes (features) e.g. (g₁ to g_m) in each sample S (f means feature, S means sample, 1-m are control features), represented by GS₁ to GS_n (n number of samples).

2. Compute geometric mean of across all samples (GS₁ to GS_n), represented by GS

3. Compute the scaling factor for each sample, S₁=GS₁/GS, S₂=GS₂/GS ... S_n=GS_n/GS

4. Normalize all the gene expression by divided by its sample scaling factor

Note: The input data node must contain all positive values to compute geometric mean.

Select Normalize to housekeeping genes task in Normalization and scaling section in the pop-up menu when you select a count matrix data node, the dialog will list all the features included in the data node on the left panel

Select control genes on the left panel and move them to the right panel. You can also use search box to find the feature and click on the  to add it to the right panel.
