R Documentation

Summarise, report and save the results of a santaR analysis

Description

After multiple variables have been analysed using santaR_auto_fit, santaR_auto_summary helps identify significant results and summarise them in an interpretable fashion. Correction for multiple testing can be applied to generate Bonferroni [1], Benjamini-Hochberg [2] or Benjamini-Yekutieli [3] corrected p-values. P-values can be saved to disk in .csv files. For a given significance cut-off (plotCutOff), the number of variables significantly altered is reported and plots are automatically saved to disk by increasing p-value. The aspect of the plots can be altered such as the representation of confidence bands (showConfBand) or the generation of a mean curve across all samples (showTotalMeanCurve) to help assess difference between groups when group sizes are unbalanced.

Usage

santaR_auto_summary(
  SANTAObjList,
  targetFolder = NA,
  summaryCSV = TRUE,
  CSVName = "summary",
  savePlot = TRUE,
  plotCutOff = 0.05,
  showTotalMeanCurve = TRUE,
  showConfBand = TRUE,
  legend = TRUE,
  fdrBH = TRUE,
  fdrBY = FALSE,
  fdrBonf = FALSE,
  CIpval = TRUE,
  plotAll = FALSE
)

Arguments

`SANTAObjList`	A list of SANTAObj with p-values calculated, as generated by `santaR_auto_fit`.
`targetFolder`	(NA or str) NA or the path to a folder in which to save summary.xls and plots. If NA no outputs are saved to disk. If `targetFolder` does not exist, folders will be created. Default is NA.
`summaryCSV`	If TRUE save the (corrected if applicable) p-values to `'CSVName'_summary.csv`, `'CSVName'_pvalue-all.csv`, `'CSVName'_pvalue-dist.csv`, `'CSVName'_pvalue-dist.csv` (default `summary_summary.csv`,...). Default is TRUE.
`CSVName`	(string) Filename of the csv to save. Default is `'summary'`.
`savePlot`	If TRUE save to `targetFolder` all variables with p < `plotCutOff` ordered by p-values. Default is TRUE.
`plotCutOff`	(float) P-value cut-off value to save summary plots to disk. Default 0.05.
`showTotalMeanCurve`	If TRUE add the mean curve across all groups on the plots. Default is TRUE.
`showConfBand`	If TRUE plot the confidence band for each group. Default is TRUE.
`legend`	If TRUE add a legend to the plots. Default is TRUE.
`fdrBH`	If TRUE add the Benjamini-Hochberg corrected p-value to the output. Default is TRUE.
`fdrBY`	If TRUE add the Benjamini-Yekutieli corrected p-value to the output. Default is FALSE.
`fdrBonf`	If TRUE add the Bonferroni corrected p-value to the output. Default is FALSE.
`CIpval`	If TRUE add the upper and lower confidence interval on p-value to the output. Default is TRUE.
`plotAll`	If TRUE override the `plotCutOff` parameter and plot all variables. Default is FALSE.

Value

A list: result$pval.all data.frame of p-values, with all variables as rows and different p-value corrections as columns. result$pval.summary data.frame of number of variables with a p-value inferior to a cut-off. Different metric and p-value correction as rows, different cut-off (Inf 0.05, Inf 0.01, Inf 0.001) as columns.
