Package 'EMDomics'

Title: Earth Mover's Distance for Differential Analysis of Genomics Data
Description: The EMDomics algorithm is used to perform a supervised multi-class analysis to measure the magnitude and statistical significance of observed continuous genomics data between groups. Usually the data will be gene expression values from array-based or sequence-based experiments, but data from other types of experiments can also be analyzed (e.g. copy number variation). Traditional methods like Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) and Linear Models for Microarray Data (LIMMA) use significance tests based on summary statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the distributions. This approach lacks power to identify expression differences between groups that show high levels of intra-group heterogeneity. The Earth Mover's Distance (EMD) algorithm instead computes the "work" needed to transform one distribution into another, thus providing a metric of the overall difference in shape between two distributions. Permutation of sample labels is used to generate q-values for the observed EMD scores. This package also incorporates the Komolgorov-Smirnov (K-S) test and the Cramer von Mises test (CVM), which are both common distribution comparison tests.

Earth Mover's Distance algorithm for differential analysis of genomics data.

Description

calculate_emd, calculate_cvm, or calculate_ks will usually be the only functions needed, depending on the type of distribution comparison test that is desired.


Cramer von Mises for differential analysis of genomics data

Description

This is a main user interface to the EMDomics package, and will usually the only function needed when conducting an analysis using the CVM algorithm. Analyses can also be conducted with the Komolgorov-Smirnov Test using calculate_ks or the Earth Mover's Distance algorithm using calculate_emd.

The algorithm is used to compare genomics data between any number of groups. Usually the data will be gene expression values from array-based or sequence-based experiments, but data from other types of experiments can also be analyzed (e.g. copy number variation).

Traditional methods like Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) and Linear Models for Microarray Data (LIMMA) use significance tests based on summary statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the two distributions. This approach tends to give non-significant results if the two distributions are highly heterogeneous, which can be the case in many biological circumstances (e.g sensitive vs. resistant tumor samples).

The Cramer von Mises (CVM) algorithm generates a test statistic that is the sum of the squared values of the differences between two cumulative distribution functions (CDFs). As a result, the test statistic tends to overestimate the similarity between two distributions and cannot effectively handle partial matching like EMD does. However, it is one of the most commonly referenced nonparametric two-class distribution comparison tests in non-genomic contexts.

The CVM-based algorithm implemented in EMDomics has two main steps. First, a matrix (e.g. of expression data) is divided into data for each of the groups. Every possible pairwise CVM score is then computed and stored in a table. The CVM score for a single gene is calculated by averaging all of the pairwise CVM scores. Next, the labels for each of the groups are randomly permuted a specified number of times, and an CVM score for each permutation is calculated. The median of the permuted scores for each gene is used as the null distribution, and the False Discovery Rate (FDR) is computed for a range of permissive to restrictive significance thresholds. The threshold that minimizes the FDR is defined as the q-value, and is used to interpret the significance of the CVM score analogously to a p-value (e.g. q-value < 0.05 is significant.)

Usage

calculate_cvm(data, outcomes, nperm = 100, pairwise.p = FALSE,
  seq = FALSE, quantile.norm = FALSE, verbose = TRUE, parallel = TRUE)

Arguments

data

A matrix containing genomics data (e.g. gene expression levels). The rownames should contain gene identifiers, while the column names should contain sample identifiers.

outcomes

seq

Boolean specifying if the given data is RNA Sequencing data and ought to be normalized. Set to TRUE, if passing transcripts per million (TPM) data or raw data that is not scaled. If TRUE, data will be normalized by first multiplying by 1E6, then adding 1, then taking the log base 2. If FALSE, the data will be handled as is (unless quantile.norm is TRUE). Note that as a distribution comparison function, K-S will compute faster with scaled data. Defaults to FALSE.

Boolean specifying is data should be normalized by quantiles. If TRUE, then the normalize.quantiles function is used. Defaults to FALSE.

This approach tends to give non-significant results if the two distributions are highly heterogeneous, which can be the case in many biological circumstances (e.g sensitive vs. resistant tumor samples).

The Earth Mover's Distance algorithm instead computes the "work" needed to transform one distribution into another, thus capturing possibly valuable information relating to the overall difference in shape between two heterogeneous distributions.

The EMD-based algorithm implemented in EMDomics has two main steps. First, a matrix (e.g. of expression data) is divided into data for each of the groups. Every possible pairwise EMD score is then computed and stored in a table. The EMD score for a single gene is calculated by averaging all of the pairwise EMD scores.

The threshold that minimizes the FDR is defined as the q-value, and is used to interpret the significance of the EMD score analogously to a p-value (e.g. q-value < 0.05 is significant.)

Because EMD is based on a histogram binning of the expression levels, data that cannot be binned will be discarded, and a message for that gene will be printed. The most likely reason for histogram binning failing is due to uniform values (e.g. all 0s).

calculate_emd_gene(dat[1,], outcomes, colnames(dat))

Calculate the Komolgorov-Smirnov test statistic and q-values for differential gene expression analysis.

Description

This is only function needed when conducting an analysis using the Komolgorov-Smirnov algorithm. Analyses can also be conducted with the EMD algorithm using calculate_emd or the Cramer Von Mises (CVM) algorithm using calculate_cvm.

The algorithm is used to compare genomics data between any number of groups. Usually the data will be gene expression values from array-based or sequence-based experiments, but data from other types of experiments can also be analyzed (e.g. copy number variation).

Traditional methods like Significance Analysis of Microarrays (SAM) and Linear Models for Microarray Data (LIMMA) use significance tests based on summary statistics (mean and standard deviation) of the two distributions. This approach tends to give non-significant results if the two distributions are highly heterogeneous, which can be the case in many biological circumstances (e.g sensitive vs. resistant tumor samples).

Komolgorov-Smirnov instead calculates a test statistic that is the maximum distance between two cumulative distribution functions (CDFs). Unlike the EMD score, the KS test statistic summarizes only the maximum difference (while EMD considers quantity and distance between all differences).

The KS algorithm implemented in EMDomics has two main steps. First, a matrix (e.g. of expression data) is divided into data for each of the groups. Every possible pairwise KS score is then computed and stored in a table. The KS score for a single gene is calculated by averaging all of the pairwise KS scores. If the user sets pairwise.p to true, then the p-values from the KS test are adjusted using the Benjamini-Hochberg method and stored in a table. Next, the labels for each of the groups are randomly permuted a specified number of times, and an EMD score for each permutation is calculated. The median of the permuted scores for each gene is used as the null distribution, and the False Discovery Rate (FDR) is computed for a range of permissive to restrictive significance thresholds. The threshold that minimizes the FDR is defined as the q-value, and is used to interpret the significance of the EMD score analogously to a p-value (e.g. q-value < 0.05 = significant). The q-values returned by the KS test (and adjusted for multiple significance testing) can be compared to the permuted q-values.

  quantile.norm = FALSE, verbose = TRUE, parallel = TRUE)

seq

Boolean specifying if the given data is RNA Sequencing data and ought to be normalized. Set to TRUE, if passing transcripts per million (TPM) data or raw data that is not scaled. If TRUE, data will be normalized by first multiplying by 1E6, then adding 1, then taking the log base 2. If FALSE, the data will be handled as is (unless quantile.norm is TRUE). Note that as a distribution comparison function, K-S will compute faster with scaled data. Defaults to FALSE.

Boolean specifying is data should be normalized by quantiles. If TRUE, then the normalize.quantiles function is used. Defaults to FALSE.

results <- calculate_emd(dat, outcomes, nperm=10, parallel=FALSE)
plot_emdperms(results)

Plot distributions and KS score for a gene.

Description

The data for the specified gene is retrieved from ksobj$data. outcomes is used to divide the data into distributions for each group, which are then visualized as density distributions. The calculated KS score for the specified gene is displayed in the plot title.

Usage

plot_ks_density(ksobj, gene_name)

Arguments

ksobj

An KSomics object, typically returned via a call to calculate_ks.

gene_name

The gene to visualize. The name should be defined as a row name in ksobj$ks.

Value

A ggplot object is returned. If the value is not assigned, a plot will be drawn.

Examples

# 100 genes, 100 samples
dat <- matrix(rnorm(10000), nrow=100, ncol=100)
rownames(dat) <- paste("gene", 1:100, sep="")
colnames(dat) <- paste("sample", 1:100, sep="")

# "A": first 50 samples; "B": next 30 samples; "C": final 20 samples
outcomes <- c(rep("A",50), rep("B",30), rep("C",20))
names(outcomes) <- colnames(dat)

results <- calculate_ks(dat, outcomes, nperm=10, parallel=FALSE)
plot_ks_density(results, "gene5")

Plot null distribution of permuted ks scores vs. calculated ks scores.

Description

The median of the randomly permuted KS scores (i.e. the null distribution) is plotted on the x-axis, vs. the observed KS scores on the y-axis. The line y=x is superimposed.

Usage

plot_ksnull(ksobj)

Arguments

ksobj

An KSomics object, typically returned via a call to calculate_ks.

Value

A ggplot object is returned. If the value is not assigned, a plot will be drawn.

colnames(dat) <- paste("sample", 1:100, sep="")

# "group A" = first 50, "group B" = second 50
groups <- c(rep("A",50),rep("B",50))
names(groups) <- colnames(dat)

results <- calculate_ks(dat, groups, nperm=10, parallel=FALSE)
plot_ksnull(results)

Plot histogram of KS scores calculated via random permutation.

Description

The permuted KS scores stored in ksobj$ks.perm are plotted as a histogram.

Usage

plot_ksperms(ksobj)

Arguments

ksobj

An KSomics object, typically returned via a call to calculate_ks.

Value

A ggplot object is returned. If the value is not assigned, a plot will be drawn.
