Setup
Install and load package
Download RAVmodel
You can download GenomicSuperSignature from Google Cloud bucket using
GenomicSuperSignature::getModel function. Currently
available models are built from top 20 PCs of 536 studies (containing
44,890 samples) containing 13,934 common genes from each of 536 study’s
top 90% varying genes based on their study-level standard deviation.
There are two versions of this RAVmodel annotated with different gene
sets for GSEA: MSigDB C2 (C2) and three priors from PLIER
package (PLIERpriors). In this vignette, we are showing the
C2 annotated model.
Note that the first interactive run of this code, you will be asked
to allow R to create a cache directory. The model file will be stored
there and subsequent calls to getModel will read from the
cache.
Content of RAVmodel
RAVindex is a matrix containing genes in rows and RAVs
in columns. colData slot provides the information on each
RAVs, such as GSEA annotation and studies involved in each cluster.
metadata slot stores model construction information.
trainingData slot contains the information on individual
studies in training dataset, such as MeSH terms assigned to each
study.

RAVindex
Replicable Axis of Variation (RAV) index
is the main component of GenomicSuperSignature. It serves as an index
connecting new datasets and the existing database. You can access it
through GenomicSuperSignature::RAVindex (equivalent of
SummarizedExperiment::assay). Rows are genes and columns
are RAVs.
Here, RAVmodel consists of 13,934 genes and 4,764 RAVs.

Silhouette width ranges from -1 to 1 for each cluster. Typically, it
is interpreted as follows:
- Values close to 1 suggest that the observation is well matched to the
assigned cluster
- Values close to 0 suggest that the observation is borderline matched
between two clusters
- Values close to -1 suggest that the observations may be assigned to
the wrong cluster
For RAVmodel, the average silhouette width of each cluster is a quality control measure and suggested as a secondary reference to choose proper RAVs, following validation score.
GSEA on each RAV
Pre-processed GSEA results on each RAV are stored in RAVmodel and can
be accessed through gsea function.
