edge_lm | R Documentation |
This function computes the specified linear model (LM) for each edge in the network, and calculates the multiple testing p-value based on the p.adjust function.
edge_lm(net, nnodes, idata, mod, diag = FALSE, padj, cores = NULL, expList = NULL, verbose = TRUE, ...)
net |
3D volume (2D matrices for each observation) or 2D matrix of edges as columns. |
nnodes |
Number of network nodes. |
idata |
Matrix or data.frame including independent variables of interest of the model. |
mod |
Model, specify as a string, e.g., "~Group + Age". |
diag |
Logical indicating if matrix diagonal is to be included in the analysis (default: FALSE). |
padj |
Character string that indicates the p.adjust method. |
cores |
Number of selected cores for parallel computing (default: NULL). |
expList |
Character string adding variable names to the varlist of 'clusterExport' (default: NULL). |
verbose |
Logical indicating if messages should be printed (default: TRUE). |
... |
Additional arguments to be passed to the low level 'lm' function. |
It's VERY IMPORTANT when giving net as a 2D matrix or data.frame, to be completely sure that column distribution fits that of the upper triangle indices of an nnodes * nnodes matrix. This may be verified through the edge indices, e.g., "which(upper.tri(matrix(nrow = nnodes, ncol = nnodes)), arr.ind = T)" (see vignette NBR-LME for more details).
To know more about padj methods, check help for the p.adjust
function. It is
noticeable that this multiple comparison approach can be much more faster than the permutations run by
the Network-Based Statistics framework, however this is a much more conservative approach
(see Zalesky et al. (2010) doi: 10.1016/j.neuroimage.2010.06.041 for more detail).
data.frame containing the edge labels, observed statistics, their corresponding p-value, and their adjusted p-values.
data(frontal2D) edge_result <- edge_lm(net = frontal2D[,-(1:3)], nnodes = 28, idata = frontal2D[,1:3], mod = "~ Group + Sex * Age", padj = "fdr") head(edge_result) if(any(edge_result[,5]<0.05)){ show(edge_result[which(edge_result[,5]<0.05),1:5]) }
