visualize_pvals: Function to visualize p-values from HiCcompare results

In HiCcompare: HiCcompare: Joint normalization and comparative analysis of multiple Hi-C datasets

Description

Function to visualize p-values from HiCcompare results

Usage

visualize_pvals(hic.table, alpha = NA, adj.p = TRUE)

Arguments

hic.table	A hic.table object that has been normalized and has had differences detected.
alpha	The alpha level at which you will call a p-value significant. If this is set to a numeric value then any p-values >= alpha will be set to 1 for the visualization in the heatmap. Defaults to NA for visualization of all p-values.
adj.p	Logical, Should the multiple testing corrected p-values be used (TRUE) or the raw p-values (FALSE)?

Details

The goal of this function is to visualize where in the Hi-C matrix the differences are occuring between two experimental conditions. The function will produce a heatmap of the -log10(p-values) * sign(adj.M) to visualize where the significant differences between the datasets are occuring on the genome.

Value

A heatmap

Examples

# Create hic.table object using included Hi-C data in sparse upper triangular
# matrix format
data('HMEC.chr22')
data('NHEK.chr22')
hic.table <- create.hic.table(HMEC.chr22, NHEK.chr22, chr = 'chr22')
# Plug hic.table into hic_loess()
result <- hic_loess(hic.table, Plot = TRUE)
# perform difference detection
diff.result <- hic_compare(result, Plot = TRUE)
# visualize p-values
visualize_pvals(diff.result)
