analyzeSNPhood: Main function of _SNPhood_

In SNPhood: SNPhood: Investigate, quantify and visualise the epigenomic neighbourhood of SNPs using NGS data

Description

analyzeSNPhood is the main function of the SNPhood package. All results, parameters and metadata are stored in an object of class SNPhood.

Usage

analyzeSNPhood(par.l, files.df, onlyPrepareForDatasetCorrelation = FALSE,
  verbose = TRUE)

Arguments

par.l	Named list. Named list with all required parameter names and their respective values, which should be generated via the helper function getDefaultParameterList. Note that all supported parameters must be defined in the list, as obtained by the function getDefaultParameterList . See also ?getDefaultParameterList for details.
files.df	Data frame with at least the column "signal" specifying the absolute paths to the BAM files that will be processed. Optionally, further columns can be added. Supported are "input", "individual" and "genotype". See the Vignette for further details. The data frame can either be created manually or via the helper function collectFiles.
onlyPrepareForDatasetCorrelation	Logical(1). Default FALSE. If set to TRUE, only steps necessary to analyze the correlation among datasets with respect to their read counts are calculated, which is less thsan time-consuming than running the full pipeline. This is a quality control step to identify outlier datasets that show artefacts and that should therefore be removed from the analysis. If set to FALSE (the default), the full pipeline is executed. In both cases, the function plotAndCalculateCorrelationDatasets can be executed afterwards.
verbose	Logical(1). Default TRUE. Should the verbose mode (i.e., diagnostic messages during execution of the script) be enabled?

Details

If you already have BAM files in objects of class BamFile or BamFileList, see the function collectFiles for how to seemlessly integrate them into the SNPhood framework.

In addition, see the vignettes for more details.

Value

Object of class SNPhood. See the class description (?"SNPhood-class", or click the link) for details.

Examples

## For the following example, see also the workflow vignette!
library(SNPhoodData)
# get a list of files to process
dataDir = system.file("extdata", package = "SNPhoodData")
files.df = collectFiles(patternFiles = paste0(dataDir,"/*.bam"))
files.df$individual = c("GM10847", "GM10847", "GM12890", "GM12890")
fileUserRegions = list.files(pattern = "*.txt",dataDir, full.names = TRUE)
par.l = getDefaultParameterList(path_userRegions = fileUserRegions)
par.l$poolDatasets = TRUE
# Run the main function with the full pipeline
SNPhood.o = analyzeSNPhood (par.l, files.df)
