Perspective image of microarray spots statistic

Description

The function arrayPersp creates perspective images of shades of gray or colors that correspond to the values of a statistic for each spot on the array. The statistic can be the intensity log-ratio, a spot quality measure (e.g. spot size or shape), or a test statistic. This function can be used to explore whether there are any spatial effects in the data, for example, print-tip or cover-slip effects.

Usage

## Default S3 method:
arrayPersp(Statistic, Col, Row,
                   ArrCol, ArrRow, SpotCol, SpotRow,
                   mediancenter=FALSE,

zlim

Numerical vector of length 2 giving the extreme values of z to associate with colors low and high of myPalette. By default zlim is the range of z. Any values of z outside the interval zlim will be truncated to the relevant limit.

bar

If bar=TRUE, a calibration color bar is shown to the right of the image.

...

Graphical parameters can be given as arguments to function persp.

	haarEndLevel = 5, weights.name = NULL,
	verbose=FALSE, ...)

Arguments

profileCGH

Object of class profileCGH

mediancenter

If TRUE, LogRatio are center on their median.

genomestep

If TRUE, a smoothing step over the whole genome is performed and a "clustering throughout the genome" allows to identify a cluster corresponding to the Normal DNA level. The threshold used in the daglad function (deltaN, forceGL, amplicon, deletion) and then compared to the median of this cluster.

normalrefcenter

If TRUE, the LogRatio are centered through the median of the cluster identified during the genomestep.

OnlySmoothing

If TRUE, only segmentation is performed without optimization of breakpoints and calling.

OnlyOptimCall

If TRUE, the user can provide data which have been already segmented. In this case, profileCGH\$profileValues must contain a field with the name "Smoothing". The daglad function skip the smoothing step but bith the optimization of breakpoints and calling are performed.

smoothfunc

Type of algorithm used to smooth LogRatio by a piecewise constant function. Choose either lawsglad, haarseg, aws or laws (aws package).

lkern

lkern determines the location kernel to be used (see laws in aws package for details).

model

model determines the distribution type of LogRatio (see laws in aws package for details).

qlambda

qlambda determines the scale parameter qlambda for the stochastic penalty (see laws in aws package for details).

base

If TRUE, the position of clone is the physical position onto the chromosome, otherwise the rank position is used.

sigma

Value to be passed to either argument sigma2 of aws (see aws package) function or shape of laws (see aws package). If NULL, sigma is calculated from the data.

bandwidth

Set the maximal bandwidth hmax in the aws or laws functions in aws package. For example, if bandwidth=10 then the hmax value is set to 10*XNX_N where XNX_N is the position of the last clone.

round

The smoothing results of either aws or laws functions (in aws package) are rounded or not depending on the round argument. The round value is passed to the argument digits of the round function.

lambdabreak

Penalty term (λ\lambda') used during the "Optimization of the number of breakpoints" step.

lambdaclusterGen

Penalty term (λ\lambda*) used during the "clustering throughout the genome" step.

param

Parameter of kernel used in the penalty term.

alpha

Risk alpha used for the "Outlier detection" step.

msize

The outliers MAD are calculated on regions with a cardinality greater or equal to msize.

method

The agglomeration method to be used during the "clustering throughout the genome" steps.

nmin

Minimum number of clusters (N*max) allowed during the "clustering throughout the genome" clustering step.

nmax

Maximum number of clusters (N*max) allowed during the "clustering throughout the genome" clustering step.

region.size

The breakpoints which define regions with a number of probes lower or equal to this value are discared.

amplicon

Level (and outliers) with a smoothing value (log-ratio value) greater than this threshold are consider as amplicon. Note that first, the data are centered on the normal reference value computed during the "clustering throughout the genome" step.

deletion

Level (and outliers) with a smoothing value (log-ratio value) lower than this threshold are consider as deletion. Note that first, the data are centered on the normal reference value computed during the "clustering throughout the genome" step.

deltaN

Region with smoothing values in between the interval [-deltaN,+deltaN] are supposed to be normal.

forceGL

Level with smoothing value greater (lower) than rangeGL[1] (rangeGL[2]) are considered as gain (lost). Note that first, the data are centered on the normal reference value computed during the "clustering throughout the genome" step.

nbsigma

For each breakpoints, a weight is calculated which is a function of absolute value of the Gap between the smoothing values of the two consecutive regions. Weight = 1- kernelpen(abs(Gap),param=c(d=nbsigma*Sigma)) where Sigma is the standard deviation of the LogRatio.

MinBkpWeight

Breakpoints which GNLchange==0 and Weight less than MinBkpWeight are discarded.

DelBkpInAmp

If TRUE, the breakpoints identified inside amplicon regions are deleted. For amplicon, the log-ratio values are highly variable which lead to identification of false positive breakpoints.

DelBkpInDel

If TRUE, the breakpoints identified inside deletion regions are deleted. For deletion, the log-ratio values are highly variable which lead to identification of false positive breakpoints.

CheckBkpPos

If TRUE, the accuracy position of each breakpoints is checked.

assignGNLOut

If FALSE the status (gain/normal/loss) is not assigned for outliers.

breaksFdrQ

breaksFdrQ for HaarSeg algorithm.

verbose

If TRUE some information are printed.

...

...

Details

The function daglad implements a slightly modified version of the methodology described in the article : Analysis of array CGH data: from signal ratio to gain and loss of DNA regions (Hupé et al., Bioinformatics, 2004). For smoothing, it is possible to use either the AWS algorithm (Polzehl and Spokoiny, 2002) or the HaarSeg algorithm (Ben-Yaacov and Eldar, Bioinformatics, 2008). The daglad function allows to choose some threshold to help the algorithm to identify the status of the genomic regions. The threshodls are given in the following parameters:

  • deltaN

  • forceGL

  • deletion

  • amplicon

Value

An object of class "profileCGH" with the following attributes:

profileValues

is a data.frame with the following information:

  • BreakpointsThe last position of a region with identical amount of DNA is flagged by 1 otherwise it is 0. Note that during the "Optimization of the number of breakpoints" step, removed breakpoints are flagged by -1.

  • LevelEach position with equal smoothing value are labelled the same way with an integer value starting from one. The label is incremented by one when a new level occurs or when moving to the next chromosome.

  • OutliersAwsEach AWS outliers are flagged -1 (if it is in the α/2\alpha/2 lower tail of the distribution) or 1 (if it is in the α/2\alpha/2 upper tail of the distribution) otherwise it is 0.

  • OutliersMadEach MAD outliers are flagged -1 (if it is in the α/2\alpha/2 lower tail of the distribution) or 1 (if it is in the α/2\alpha/2 upper tail of the distribution) otherwise it is 0.

  • ZoneGNLStatus of each clone: Gain is coded by 1, Loss by -1, Amplicon by 2, deletion by -10 and Normal by 0.

BkpInfo

is a data.frame sum up the information for each breakpoint:

  • ChromosomeChromosome name.

  • SmoothingSmoothing value for the breakpoint.

  • Gapabsolute value of the gap between the smoothing values of the two consecutive regions.

  • SigmaThe estimation of the standard-deviation of the chromosome.

  • Weight1 - kernelpen(Gap, type, param=c(d=nbsigma*Sigma))

  • ZoneGNLStatus of the level where is the breakpoint.

  • GNLchangeTakes the value 1 if the ZoneGNL of the two consecutive regions are different.

Details

The function glad implements the methodology which is described in the article: Analysis of array CGH data: from signal ratio to gain and loss of DNA regions (Hupé et al., Bioinformatics, 2004).

The principles of the GLAD algorithm: First, the detection of breakpoints is based on the estimation of a piecewise constant function with the Adaptive Weights Smoothing (AWS) procedure (Polzehl and Spokoiny, 2002). Alternatively, it is possible to use the HaarSeg algorithm (Ben-Yaacov and Eldar, Bioinformatics, 2008). Then, a procedure based on penalyzed maximum likelihood optimizes the number of breakpoints and removes the undesirable breakpoints. Finally, based on the regions previously identified, a two-step unsupervised classification (MSHR clustering by chromosome and the HCSR clustering throughout the genome) with model selection criteria allows a status to be assigned for each region (gain, loss or normal).

Main parameters to be tuned:

qlambda if you want the smoothing to fit some very local effect, choose a smaller qlambda.
bandwidth choose a bandwidth not to small otherwise you will have a lot of little discontinuities.
lambdabreak The higher the parameter is, the higher the number of undesirable breakpoints is.
lambdacluster The higher the parameter is, the higher is the number of the regions within a chromosome which belong to the same cluster.
lambdaclusterGen More the parameter is high more the regions over the whole genome are supposed to belong to the same cluster.

Value

An object of class "profileCGH" with the following attributes:

profileValues:

a data.frame with the following added information:

  • SmoothingThe smoothing values correspond to the median of each MSHR (i.e. Region).

  • BreakpointsThe last position of a region with identical amount of DNA is flagged by 1 otherwise it is 0. Note that during the "Optimization of the number of breakpoints" step, removed breakpoints are flagged by -1.

  • RegionEach position between two breakpoints are labelled the same way with an integer value starting from one. The label is incremented by one when a new breakpoint is found or when moving to the next chromosome. The variable region is what we call MSHR.

  • LevelEach position with equal smoothing value is labelled the same way with an integer value starting from one. The label is incremented by one when a new level is found or when moving to the next chromosome.

  • OutliersAwsEach AWS outliers are flagged -1 or 1 otherwise it is 0.

  • OutliersMadEach MAD outliers are flagged -1 (if it is in the α/2\alpha/2 lower tail of the distribution) or 1 (if it is in the α/2\alpha/2 upper tail of the distribution) otherwise it is 0.

  • OutliersTotOutliersAws + OutliersMad.

  • ZoneChrClusters identified after MSHR (i.e. Region) clustering by chromosome.

  • ZoneGenClusters identified after HCSR clustering throughout the genome.

  • ZoneGNLStatus of each clone : Gain is coded by 1, Loss by -1 and Normal by 0.

BkpInfo:

the data.frame attribute BkpInfo which gives the list of breakpoints:

  • PosOrderThe rank position of each clone on the genome.

  • PosBaseThe base position of each clone on the genome.

  • ChromosomeChromosome name.

SigmaC:

the data.frame attribute SigmaC gives the estimation of the LogRatio standard-deviation for each chromosome:

  • ChromosomeChromosome name.

  • ValueThe estimation is based on the Inter Quartile Range.

Hierarchical Clustering

Description

Hierarchical cluster analysis on a set of dissimilarities and methods for analyzing it.

Usage

hclustglad(d, method = "complete", members=NULL)

Arguments

d

a dissimilarity structure as produced by dist.

method

the agglomeration method to be used. This should be (an unambiguous abbreviation of) one of "ward", "single", "complete", "average", "mcquitty", "median" or "centroid".

members

NULL or a vector with length size of d.

Details

This function performs a hierarchical cluster analysis using a set of dissimilarities for the nn objects being clustered. Initially, each object is assigned to its own cluster and then the algorithm proceeds iteratively, at each stage joining the two most similar clusters, continuing until there is just a single cluster. At each stage distances between clusters are recomputed by the Lance–Williams dissimilarity update formula according to the particular clustering method being used.

A number of different clustering methods are provided. Ward's minimum variance method aims at finding compact, spherical clusters. The complete linkage method finds similar clusters. The single linkage method (which is closely related to the minimal spanning tree) adopts a ‘friends of friends’ clustering strategy. The other methods can be regarded as aiming for clusters with characteristics somewhere between the single and complete link methods.

If members!=NULL, then d is taken to be a dissimilarity matrix between clusters instead of dissimilarities between singletons and members gives the number of observations per cluster. This way the hierarchical cluster algorithm can be “started in the middle of the dendrogram”, e.g., in order to reconstruct the part of the tree above a cut (see examples). Dissimilarities between clusters can be efficiently computed (i.e., without hclustglad itself) only for a limited number of distance/linkage combinations, the simplest one being squared Euclidean distance and centroid linkage. In this case the dissimilarities between the clusters are the squared Euclidean distances between cluster means.

In hierarchical cluster displays, a decision is needed at each merge to specify which subtree should go on the left and which on the right. Since, for nn observations there are n1n-1 merges, there are 2(n1)2^{(n-1)} possible orderings for the leaves in a cluster tree, or dendrogram. The algorithm used in hclustglad is to order the subtree so that the tighter cluster is on the left (the last, i.e. most recent, merge of the left subtree is at a lower value than the last merge of the right subtree). Single observations are the tightest clusters possible, and merges involving two observations place them in order by their observation sequence number.

Value

An object of class hclust which describes the tree produced by the clustering process. The object is a list with components:

merge

an n1n-1 by 2 matrix. Row ii of merge describes the merging of clusters at step ii of the clustering. If an element jj in the row is negative, then observation j-j was merged at this stage. If jj is positive then the merge was with the cluster formed at the (earlier) stage jj of the algorithm. Thus negative entries in merge indicate agglomerations of singletons, and positive entries indicate agglomerations of non-singletons.

height

a set of n1n-1 non-decreasing real values. The clustering height: that is, the value of the criterion associated with the clustering method for the particular agglomeration.

order

a vector giving the permutation of the original observations suitable for plotting, in the sense that a cluster plot using this ordering and matrix merge will not have crossings of the branches.

labels

labels for each of the objects being clustered.

call

the call which produced the result.

method

the cluster method that has been used.

dist.method

the distance that has been used to create d (only returned if the distance object has a "method" attribute).

Author(s)

The hclustglad function is based an Algorithm contributed to STATLIB by F. Murtagh.
