Package 'orthos'

Title: `orthos` is an R package for variance decomposition using conditional variational auto-encoders
Description: `orthos` decomposes RNA-seq contrasts, for example obtained from a gene knock-out or compound treatment experiment, into unspecific and experiment-specific components. Original and decomposed contrasts can be efficiently queried against a large database of contrasts (derived from ARCHS4, https://maayanlab.cloud/archs4/) to identify similar experiments. `orthos` furthermore provides plotting functions to visualize the results of such a search for similar contrasts.

orthos - variance decomposition using conditional variational auto-encoders

Description

orthos decomposes RNA-seq contrasts, for example obtained from a genetic or compound treatment experiments, into non-specific and experiment-specific components. Original and decomposed contrasts can be efficiently queried against a large database of public contrasts (derived from ARCHS4, https://maayanlab.cloud/archs4/) to identify similar experiments. orthos furthermore provides plotting functions to visualize the results of such queries for similar contrasts.

Decompose input contrasts to decoded and residual fractions

Description

Decompose input contrasts (gene expression deltas) to decoded (generic) and residual (unique) components according to a contrast encoder-decoder pre-trained on a large corpus of public RNAseq experiments.

Usage

decomposeVar(
  M,
  MD = NULL,
  treatm = NULL,
  cntr = NULL,
  processInput = TRUE,
  organism = c("Human", "Mouse"),
  featureType = c("AUTO", "ENSEMBL_GENE_ID", "GENE_SYMBOL", "ENTREZ_GENE_ID",
    "ARCHS4_ID"),
  pseudocount = 4,
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

M

Matrix of raw gene counts.

MD

Matrix of gene deltas (optional). If MD is specified, M is assumed to be a raw gene count matrix specifying context for contrasts specified in MD. MD is then a matrix of gene deltas with the same dimensions as M. If MD is specified, treatm and cntr have to be NULL.

treatm, cntr

Vectors indicating column indices in M corresponding to treatments and controls. If treatm and cntr are specified, MD has to be NULL.

processInput

If set to TRUE (default) the count matrix will be preprocessed (library normalized, log2-transformed after addition of a pseudocount, NA values will be set to 0).

organism

Selects the autoencoder model trained on data from this species. One of "Human" or "Mouse".

featureType

Set to "AUTO" for automatic feature id-type detection. Alternatively specify the type of supplied id features. Current supported types are "ENSEMBL_GENE_ID", "GENE_SYMBOL", "ENTREZ_GENE_ID" and "ARCHS4_ID".

pseudocount

Numerical scalar, added to raw counts in M when preprocessInput = TRUE.

verbose

Logical scalar indicating whether to print messages along the way.

Details

When calling decomposeVar(), you may see an ImportError on the console. This most likely does not have any negative consequences, rather it means that R and python may not be library compatible and that an automated fallback approach is being used (for more details see testload argument of basiliskStart).

Value

A SummarizedExperiment object with the decomposed contrasts in the assays and the decomposed variance as the colData.

Examples

MKL1_human <- readRDS(system.file("extdata", "GSE215150_MKL1_Human.rds",
package = "orthos"))

# Specifying M, treatm and cntr:
dec_MKL1_human <- decomposeVar(M = MKL1_human, treatm = c(2, 3), cntr = c(1, 1), 
                              organism = "Human", verbose = FALSE)
                              
                              
# Alternatively by specifying M and MD:
pseudocount <- 4 
M  <- sweep(MKL1_human, 2,
            colSums(MKL1_human), FUN = "/") * 1e+06
M  <- log2(M + pseudocount)
DeltaM <- M[,c("MKL1","caMKL1")]-M[,"Ctrl"] # Matrix of contrasts
ContextM <- M[,c("Ctrl","Ctrl")] # Matrix with context for the specified contrasts
colnames(ContextM) <- colnames(DeltaM) # M and MD need identical dimnames                       
RES <- decomposeVar(M = ContextM, MD = DeltaM, processInput = FALSE)

Load contrast database

Description

Load a pre-calculated, organism-specific contrast database and return it as a SummarizedExperiment.

Usage

loadContrastDatabase(
  organism = c("Human", "Mouse"),
  mode = c("ANALYSIS", "DEMO"),
  mustWork = TRUE
)

Arguments

organism

Character scalar selecting the organism for which to load the contrast database. One of "Human" or "Mouse".

mode

When in "ANALYSIS" mode (default) the complete contrast DB is queried. "DEMO" mode employs a small "toy" database for the queries. "DEMO" should only be used for testing/demonstration purposes and never for actual analysis purposes.

mustWork

Logical scalar. If FALSE and the contrast database is not available, return an empty SummarizedExperiment object. If TRUE (the default) and the contrast database is not available, loadContrastDatabase throws an error.

Details

Organism-specific databases are compiled in HDF5SummarizedExperiment objects. The first time 'loadContrastDatabase()' is called for a database either directly or via 'queryWithContrasts()' the required objects will be automatically downloaded from 'ExperimentHub' and cached in the user ExperimentHub directory (see 'ExperimentHub::getExperimentHubOption("CACHE")') using the 'orthosData' companion data-package.

Value

A SummarizedExperiment with pre-calculated contrasts as assays.

Arguments

Query the contrast database with a set of contrasts

Description

Query the contrast database with a set of contrasts

Usage

queryWithContrasts(
  contrasts,
  use = c("expressed.in.both", "all.genes"),
  exprThr = 0.25,
  organism = c("Human", "Mouse"),
  plotType = c("violin", "manh", "none"),
  detailTopn = 10,
  verbose = TRUE,
  BPPARAM = BiocParallel::bpparam(),
  chunk_size = 500,
  mode = c("ANALYSIS", "DEMO")
)

Arguments

contrasts

A SummarizedExperiment object with assays containing contrasts named INPUT_CONTRASTS, DECODED_CONTRASTS and RESIDUAL_CONTRASTS (at least one should be present) and context information in an assay named CONTEXT. The latter is only required when use="expressed.in.both". This is typically generated using decomposeVar.

use

Determines if all.genes or genes expressed in both query and target context will be used. Note that "expressed.in.both", though more accurate, is slower.

exprThr

is the quantile in the provided context that determines the expression value above which a gene is considered to be expressed. This same value is then used for thresholding the contrast database. Only applies when use="expressed.in.both".

organism

Uses the 'orthosData' contrast database from this species. One of "Human" or "Mouse".

plotType

Select the type of visualization for the query results "violin", "manh" or "none" to suppress the plotting.

detailTopn

specifies the number of top hits for which metadata will be returned in the TopHits slot of the results.

verbose

Logical scalar indicating whether to print messages along the way.

BPPARAM

BiocParallelParam object specifying how parallelization is to be performed using e.g. MulticoreParam) or SnowParam).

chunk_size

Column dimension for the grid used to read blocks from the HDF5 Matrix. Sizes between 250 and 1000 are recommended. Smaller sizes reduce memory usage.

mode

When in "ANALYSIS" mode (default) the complete contrast DB is queried. "DEMO" mode employs a small "toy" database for the queries. "DEMO" should only be used for testing/demonstration purposes and never for actual analysis purposes.

Value

A list with three elements called "pearson.rhos", "zscores" and "TopHits", containing raw and z-scored Pearson's rho correlation coefficients between the query contrast(s) and the contrasts in the database, as well as detailed metadata for the detailTopn best hits.
