plotClusters: Plot static parallel coordinate clusters

In bigPint: Big multivariate data plotted interactively

Description

Perform hierarchical clustering analysis and visualize results with parallel coordinate plots. Optionally, save gene IDs within each cluster to .rds files for later use.

Usage

plotClusters(
  data,
  dataMetrics = NULL,
  dataSE = NULL,
  geneList = NULL,
  geneLists = NULL,
  threshVar = "FDR",
  threshVal = 0.05,
  clusterAllData = TRUE,
  showPairs = TRUE,
  nC = 4,
  colList = rainbow(nC),
  aggMethod = c("ward.D", "ward.D2", "single", "complete", "average", "mcquitty",
    "median", "centroid"),
  yAxisLabel = "Count",
  xAxisLabel = "Sample",
  lineSize = 0.1,
  lineAlpha = 0.5,
  vxAxis = FALSE,
  outDir = tempdir(),
  saveFile = TRUE,
  verbose = FALSE
)

Arguments

data	DATA FRAME | Read counts
dataMetrics	LIST | Differential expression metrics; default NULL
dataSE	SUMMARIZEDEXPERIMENT | Summarized experiment format that can be used in lieu of data and dataMetrics; default NULL
geneList	CHARACTER ARRAY | Array of ID values of genes to be drawn from data as parallel coordinate lines. Use this parameter if you have predetermined genes to be drawn. These genes will be clustered. Otherwise, use dataMetrics, threshVar, and threshVal to create clusters to be overlaid as parallel coordinate lines; default NULL. See package website for examples
geneLists	LIST | List of ID values of genes already clustered to be drawn from data as parallel coordinate lines. Each list item is an array of genes ID values that are already grouped as a cluster. Unlike the singular geneList object, the plural geneLists object is not be clustered. If you instead wish to cluster genes, use dataMetrics, threshVar, and threshVal or geneList to create clusters to be overlaid as parallel coordinate lines; default NULL. See package website for examples
threshVar	CHARACTER STRING | Name of column in dataMetrics object that is used to threshold significance; default "FDR"
threshVal	INTEGER | Maximum value to threshold significance from threshVar object; default 0.05
clusterAllData	BOOLEAN [TRUE | FALSE] | Create clusters based on the whole dataset and then assign significant genes to those clusters; default is TRUE. If FALSE, create clusters based on just the significant genes. With either option, the side-by-side boxplot will represent the whole dataset (from data input) and the parallel coordinate lines will represent only the significant genes (those that pass threshVal for threshVar)
showPairs	BOOLEAN [TRUE | FALSE] | When more than three treatment groups are present, for each pairwise comparison, show only the results for that pair of treatment groups; default is TRUE. If FALSE, show results for all treatment groups even though clusters and significance are determined in pairwise fashion. Note this parameter will not make a difference when the data only contains two treatment groups
nC	INTEGER | Number of clusters; default 4
colList	CHARACTER ARRAY | List of colors for each cluster; default is rainbow(nC)
aggMethod	CHARACTER STRING ["ward.D" | "ward.D2" | "single" | "complete" | "average" | "mcquitty" | "median" | "centroid"] | The agglomeration method to be used in the hierarchical clustering; default "ward.D"
yAxisLabel	CHARACTER STRING | Vertical axis label; default "Count"
xAxisLabel	CHARACTER STRING | Horizontal axis label; default "Sample"
lineSize	INTEGER | Size of plotted parallel coordinate lines; default 0.1
lineAlpha	INTEGER | Alpha value of plotted parallel coordinate lines, default 0.5
vxAxis	BOOLEAN [TRUE | FALSE] | Flip x-axis text labels to vertical orientation; default FALSE
outDir	CHARACTER STRING | Output directory to save all images; default tempdir()
saveFile	BOOLEAN [TRUE | FALSE] | Save file to outDir; default TRUE
verbose	BOOLEAN [TRUE | FALSE] | Print each cluster from each cluster size into separate files and print the associated IDs of each cluster from each cluster size into separate .rds files; default is FALSE

Value

List of n elements each containing a grid of parallel coordinate plots, where n is the number of treatment pair combinations in the data object. If the saveFile parameter has a value of TRUE, then each grid of parallel coordinate plots is saved to the location specified in the outDir parameter as a JPG file. If the verbose parameter has a value of TRUE, then a JPG file for each parallel coordinate plot in each grid, RDS file containing the superimposed IDs for each parallel coordinate plot in each grid, and the JPG file of each grid of parallel coordinate plots is saved to the location specified in the outDir parameter.

Examples

# The first set of five examples use data and dataMetrics
# objects as input. The last set of five examples create the same plots now
# using the SummarizedExperiment (i.e. dataSE) object input.

# Example 1: Perform hierarchical clustering of size four using the 
# default agglomeration method "ward.D". Cluster only on the genes that have
# FDR < 1e-7 (n = 113) and overlay these genes.

# pairwise combinations of treatment groups (S1 and S2; S1 and S3) have any 
# genes with FDR < 0.05. The output plots for these two pairs are examined.
