Description

Multiple sample aCGH analysis using kernel convolution

Details

Package: KCsmart
Type: Package
Version: 2.9.1
Date: 2011-02-21
License: GPL

Use the wrapper function 'calcSpm' to calculate the sample point matrix. Use 'findSigLevelTrad' to find a significance threshold using permutation based testing. Use 'plot' to plot the sample point matrix or 'plotScaleSpace' to plot the significant regions over multiple scales (sigmas). Use 'getSigSegments' to retrieve the significantly gained and lost regions using specific cutoffs. To use the comparative version of KCsmart, use the 'calcSpmCollection', 'compareSpmCollection' and 'getSigRegionsCompKC' functions. See the documentation of those function for details on how to use these.

KCsmart wrapper

Description

Wrapper function that calculates the sample point matrix from the aCGH data

Usage

calcSpm(data, mirrorLocs, sigma = 1e+06, sampleDensity = 50000, maxmem = 1000, verbose=T, old=F)

Arguments

data

The aCGH data. Can either be in DNAcopy format or as a data.frame described in the details section

mirrorLocs

List containing the chromosome start, centromere and end positions

sigma

The kernel width

sampleDensity

The sample point matrix resolution

maxmem

This parameter controls memory usage, set to lower value to lower memory consumption

verbose

If set to false, no progress information is displayed

old

If set to true the old implementation of KCsmart will be used to calculate the spm

Details

'data' can be in cghRaw (CGHbase), DNAcopy or in data.frame format. When using the latter, the data.frame must have the following two columns: 'chrom' stating the chromosome the probe is located on, 'maploc' describing the position on the chromosome of the probe. The remainder of the data.frame will be interpreted as sample data points. The row names of that data will be used as probe names (when available). Important note: the data can not contain any missing values. If your data includes missing values you will need to preprocess (for example impute) it using other software solutions.

The mirror locations for Homo Sapiens and Mus Musculus are provided in the package. These can be loaded using data(hsMirrorLocs) and data(mmMirrorLocs) respectively. The 'mirrorLocs' object is a list with vectors containing the start, centromere (optional) and end of each chromosome as the list elements. Additionally it should contain an attribute 'chromNames' listing the chromosome names of each respective list element.

'sigma' defines the kernel width of the kernel used to convolute the data.

'sampleDensity' defines the resolution of the sample point matrix to be calculated. A sampleDensity of 50000 would correspond to a sample point every 50k base pairs.

'old' can be used if you want to reproduce data that was generated with old (pre 2.9.0) versions of KCsmart, for any new analyses we recommend this flag to be set to false

Value

Returns a sample point matrix object. The object has several slots of which the 'data' slot contains a list where each list item represents a chromosome. Each list item in turn contains the sample point matrix for the gains and the losses separately and an attribute specifying the corresponding chromosome. The sample point matrix contains the following additional slots: totalLength: Total length of the sample point matrix maxy and miny: Maximal and minimal score attained

The other slots just represent the parameters used to calculate the sample point matrix.

Use 'plot' to plot the sample point matrix and 'findSigLevelTrad' to find a significance threshold. 'plotScaleSpace' can be used to plot the significant regions of multiple sample point matrices (using different sigmas).

KCsmart Comparative wrapper

Description

Wrapper function that calculates the sample point matrix collection from the aCGH data. The sample point matrix collection is used in the comparative version of KCsmart.

Usage

calcSpmCollection(data, mirrorLocs, cl=NULL, data2=NULL, sigma=1000000, sampleDensity=50000, maxmem=1000, verbose=F, doChecks=T, old=F)

Arguments

data

The aCGH data. Can either be in DNAcopy format or as a data.frame described in the details section

mirrorLocs

List containing the chromosome start, centromere and end positions

cl

A class vector indicating which samples belong to which class

Instead of a class vector a second data set can be provided which will be combined with the first data set into one sample point matrix collection

sigma

The kernel width

sampleDensity

The sample point matrix resolution

maxmem

This parameter controls memory usage, set to lower value to lower memory consumption

verbose

If set to false, no progress information is displayed

doChecks

If set to false, the data will not be checked for consistency

old

If set to true the old implementation of KCsmart will be used to calculate the spm

Details

The input can either consist of a single data set and a class vector or two separate datasets. In the latter case a class vector will be created assigning each data set to its own class. 'data' can be in cghRaw (CGHbase), DNAcopy or in data.frame format. When using the latter, the data.frame must have the following two columns: 'chrom' stating the chromosome the probe is located on, 'maploc' describing the position on the chromosome of the probe. The remainder of the data.frame will be interpreted as sample data points. The row names of that data will be used as probe names (when available). Important note: the data can not contain any missing values. If your data includes missing values you will need to preprocess (for example impute) it using other software solutions.

The mirror locations for Homo Sapiens and Mus Musculus are provided in the package. These can be loaded using data(hsMirrorLocs) and data(mmMirrorLocs) respectively. The 'mirrorLocs' object is a list with vectors containing the start, centromere (optional) and end of each chromosome as the list elements. Additionally it should contain an attribute 'chromNames' listing the chromosome names of each respective list element.

'sigma' defines the kernel width of the kernel used to convolute the data.

'sampleDensity' defines the resolution of the sample point matrix to be calculated. A sampleDensity of 50000 would correspond to a sample point every 50k base pairs.

'old' can be used if you want to reproduce data that was generated with old (pre 2.9.0) versions of KCsmart, for any new analyses we recommend this flag to be set to false

Value

Returns a sample point matrix collection object. The object has several slots of which the 'data' slot contains a matrix with the kernel smoothed estimates of all samples. The sample point matrix collection contains the following additional slots: cl: A class vector indicating which samples belong to which class. annotation: The annotation (containing the chromosome and position on the chromosome) for the sample points in the 'data' slot

The other slots just represent the parameters used to calculate the sample point matrix collection.

Use 'compareSpmCollection' to get a 'compKc' object for which the significant regions can be calculated using 'getSigRegionsCompKC'.

This function has not been properly implemented yet

Description

Method to find the cutoff at which gains and losses are considered significant using permutations

Usage

findSigLevelFdr(data, observedSpm, n = 1, fdrTarget=0.05, maxmem=1000)

Arguments

data

aCGH data in the same format as used for 'calcSpm'

observedSpm

A sample point matrix as produced by 'calcSpm'

n

Number of permutations

fdrTarget

Target False Discovery Rate (FDR)

maxmem

This parameter controls memory usage, set to lower value to lower memory consumption

Details

The number of permutations needed for reliable results depends on the data and can not be determined beforehand. As a general rule-of-thumb around 100 permutations should be used for 'quick checks' and around 2000 permutations for more rigorous testing. The FDR method is less conservatie than the p-value based approach since instead of controlling the family wise error rate (FWER, P(false positive > 1)) it controls the false discovery rate (FDR) (false positives / total number of called data points).

Value

A list with the cutoffs corresponding to the given FDR

pos

The cutoff for the gains

neg

The cutoff for the losses'

Description

Method to find the cutoff at which gains and losses are considered significant using permutations

Usage

maxmem

This parameter controls memory usage, set to lower value to lower memory consumption

Details

The number of permutations needed for reliable results depends on the data and can not be determined beforehand. As a general rule-of-thumb around 100 permutations should be used for 'quick checks' and around 2000 permutations for more rigorous testing.

p is the uncorrected alpha level, the method corrects for multiple testing internally using simple Bonferroni correction. See the referenced publication for more details.

Value

KCsmart Comparative calculate the signficant regions

Description

Extract the significant regions from a compKC object for a given false discovery rate (FDR).

Usage

getSigRegionsCompKC(compKc, fdr=.01, maxRegionGap=10)

Arguments

compKc

A compKc object as created by the 'compareSpmCollection' function

fdr

The false discovery rate to be used to calculate the significantly different regions from the compKc object

maxRegionGap

The maximum number of sample points that is allowed to fall under the threshold in a continuous significant region

Details

The false discovery rate that is set is used to determine the significant regions. When the compKc object was created by the siggenes method the corresponding cutoff is looked up in the siggenes results table, otherwise it is calculated from the permuted data. The maxRegionGap determines how many sample points can be under this threshold in a continuous significant region.

Value

Returns a compKcSigRegions object that contains the significant regions for the given FDR in the 'regionTable' slot. The method used to determine the cutoff, the fdr and the cutoff itself are stored in their corresponding slots. Use 'plot' to visualize the results.

Plot a sample point matrix

Description

Plot the sample point matrix or parts of it

Usage

plot(x,y, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'scaleSpace,missing'
plot(x, y, spm, type='b', ...)
## S4 method for signature 'samplePointMatrix,missing'
plot(x, y, type="b", sigLevels=NULL, chromosomes=NULL, colinAxis=NULL, fillColor=NULL, maploc=NULL, interpolation=1, main=NULL, col=NULL, ylim=NULL, add=F, ...)
## S4 method for signature 'compKc,missing'
plot(x, sigRegions=NULL, type="1", chromosomes=NULL, colinAxis=NULL, maploc=NULL, interpolation=1, main=NULL, col1=NULL, col2=NULL, ylim=NULL, add=F, ...)

Arguments

x

either an object of class samplePointMatrix, scaleSpace or compKc

y

object of class missing

type

Determines which data is plotted. 'g' for gains only, 'l' for losses only and 'b' and '1' for both in one plot device

spm

add stuff here

sigRegions

The significant regions as calculated by the compKcSigRegions function

sigLevels

If given, the cutoffs will be drawn as lines in the plots. Optional

chromosomes

Takes a vector of chromosomes to be plotted. Defaults to all chromosomes.

colinAxis

Allows you to override default behaviour of axis labeling. Choose False for genomic position labeling for each individual chromosome, True for colinear labeling.

fillColor

Allows you to choose the colors used to fill the significant areas under the curve. Takes a list with the 'pos' element giving the color for the gains and the 'neg' element the color for the losses.

maploc

Currently not in use

interpolation

Determines which points from the sample point matrix will actually be plotted. If the value of 'interpolation' is n, then every n-th point will be plotted. The default value of 1 will results in all points being plotted. This can be useful when a high density sample point matrix results in big file size when exporting the image (especially to pdf or eps format).

main

Set the title of the plot

col

Set the color of the plotted lines

col1

Set the color of the plotted lines

col2

Set the color of the plotted lines

ylim

Set the y-axis limits

add

When set to true the plot is added to the current plot device

...

Any other parameters you would like to pass to 'plot'. See 'par' for more details.

Value

Plots the sample point matrix. The gains and the losses are plotted separately. The KC normalized score is plotted on the y-axis, the genomic position on the x-axis. If centromeres are present these are represented by dotted, lightblue lines. Setting type to 'b' or to '1' will both make the plot appear in one plot device, '1' will plot the gains and the losses in one plot, 'b' will plot the gains and losses separately. Using the 'add' flag it is possible to add a plot to the current plot device. The 'col' and 'ylim' arguments can be used to set the color of each plot and the plot regions. The function 'idPoints' can be used to identify points in the sample point matrix plot. See the corresponding documentation for details.

In case of plotting a compKc object, col1 and col2 can be used to set the colors of the group 1 and group 2 mean values respectively.

Details

Takes sample point matrices that were calculated using (different) kernel widths (sigma), then calculates the significant regions given the cutoffs as defined by 'sigLevels' and plots these in one figure.

Value

Depending on the 'type' parameter, produces one or two plots, one for the gains and one for the losses. The heatmap color indicates the level of the gain or loss.

Significant segments

Description

Lists the significant segments found in a given sample point matrix using a given significance level

Objects from the Class

Objects can not be created by the user directly but rather through getSigSegments.

Slots

gains:

Gained segments

losses:

Lost segments

sigma:

The sigma used for the kernel to calculate the sample point matrix.

sigLevels:

The significance levels at which significant segments are calculated

Methods

show

signature(object = "sigSegments"): ...

write.table

signature(x = "sigSegments"): ...

Examples

showClass("sigSegments")

Sample point matrix collection

Description

A sample point matrix collection resulting from a call to calcSpmCollection

Objects from the Class

Objects can not be created by the user directly but rather through calcSpmCollection.

Slots

annotation:

The annotation (containing the chromosome and position on the chromosome) for the sample points in the 'data' slot

data:

A matrix with the kernel smoothed estimates of all samples

cl:

A class vector indicating which samples belong to which class

sampleDensity:

The sample density used to calculate the sample point matrix. ie the distance between two points in the sample point matrix, measured in base pairs.

sigma:

The sigma used for the kernel to calculate the sample point matrix.

mirrorLocs:

The mirror locations list used to calculate the sample point matrix

Methods

show

signature(object = "spmCollection"): ...

Examples

showClass("spmCollection")

Write summary of the significant regions to a table

Description

Write summary of the significant regions to a table

Usage

write.table(x, file = "", append = FALSE, quote = TRUE, sep = " ",
                 eol = "\n", na = "NA", dec = ".", row.names = TRUE,
                 col.names = TRUE, qmethod = c("escape", "double"), fileEncoding = "")
## S4 method for signature 'sigSegments'
write.table(x, file="", append = FALSE, quote = 7, sep = "\t", eol = "\n", na = "NA", dec = ".", row.names = TRUE, col.names=c("Status", "Chromosome", "Start", "End", "Average KC score", "Mode KC score", "Probes"), qmethod = c("escape", "double"))
## S4 method for signature 'compKcSigRegions'
write.table(x, file="", append = FALSE, quote = 7, sep = "\t", eol = "\n", na = "NA", dec = ".", row.names = FALSE, col.names=c("startrow", "endrow", "chromosome", "startposition", "endposition"), qmethod = c("escape", "double"))

Arguments

x

The sigSegments object to be summarized

file

either a character string naming a file or a connection open for writing. '""' indicates output to the console.

append

logical. Only relevant if 'file' is a character string. If 'TRUE', the output is appended to the file. If 'FALSE', any existing file of the name is destroyed.

quote

a logical value ('TRUE' or 'FALSE') or a numeric vector. If 'TRUE', any character or factor columns will be surrounded by double quotes. If a numeric vector, its elements are taken as the indices of columns to quote. In both cases, row and column names are quoted if they are written. If 'FALSE', nothing is quoted.

sep

the field separator string. Values within each row of 'x' are separated by this string.

eol

the character(s) to print at the end of each line (row).

na

the string to use for missing values in the data.

dec

the string to use for decimal points in numeric or complex columns: must be a single character.

row.names

either a logical value indicating whether the row names of 'x' are to be written along with 'x', or a character vector of row names to be written.

col.names

either a logical value indicating whether the column names of 'x' are to be written along with 'x', or a character vector of column names to be written. See the section on 'CSV files' for the meaning of 'col.names = NA'.

qmethod

a character string specifying how to deal with embedded double quote characters when quoting strings. Must be one of '"escape"' (default), in which case the quote character is escaped in C style by a backslash, or '"double"', in which case it is doubled. You can specify just the initial letter.

fileEncoding

character string: if non-empty declares the encoding to be used on a file (not a connection) so the character data can be re-encoded as they are written. See file.

Details

Writes a summary of the sigSegments object to file. The resulting table contains 7 columns. The interpretation of the columns is as follows:

  • Status Either 'L' for loss or 'G' for gain

  • Chromosome The chromosome on which this segment is located

  • Start The start position (in base pairs) of the segment on the chromosome

  • End The end position of the segment on the chromosome

  • Average KC scoreThe average KCsmart score over all base pairs in this segment

  • Mode KC scoreThe highest (for gains) or lowest (for losses) KCsmart score over all base pairs in this segment

  • Probes All probes from the original data that fall into this segment
