PRS_PGx_Lasso: Construct PGx PRS using penalized regression

In PRSPGx: Construct PGx PRS

Construct PGx PRS using penalized regression

Description

Shrink prognostic and predictive effect sizes simultaneously via the penalized term. With different assumptions on the relationship between the two effects, can be PRS-PGx-L (Lasso), PRS-PGx-GL (Group Lasso), and PRS-PGx-SGL (Sparse Group Lasso)

Usage

PRS_PGx_Lasso(Y, Tr, G, intercept = TRUE, lambda, method, alpha = 0.5)

Arguments

Y	a numeric vector containing the quantitative trait
Tr	a numeric vector containing the treatment assignment
G	a numeric matrix containing genotype information
intercept	a logical flag indicating should intercept be fitted (default=TRUE) or set to be FALSE
lambda	a numeric value indicating the penalty
method	a logical flag for different penalized regression methods: 1 = PRS-PGx-L, 2 = PRS-PGx-GL, 3 = PRS-PGx-SGL
alpha	a numeric value indicating the mixing parameter (only used when method = 3). alpha = 1 is the lasso penalty. alpha = 0 is the group lasso penalty

Details

PRS-PGx-Lasso requires individudal-level data

Value

A numeric list, the first sublist contains estimated prognostic effect sizes, the second sublist contains estimated predictive effect sizes
