get_shannon_diversity_index: Get Shannon Diversity Index for Signatures

In sigminer: Extract, Analyze and Visualize Mutational Signatures for Genomic Variations

Get Shannon Diversity Index for Signatures

Description

H = - \sum_{i=1}^n{p_i ln(p_i)}

where n is the number of signatures identified in the signature with exposure > cutoff, and pi is the normalized exposure of the ith signature with exposure > cutoff. Exposures of signatures were normalized to sum to 1.

Usage

get_shannon_diversity_index(rel_expo, cutoff = 0.001)

Arguments

rel_expo	a data.frame with numeric columns indicating relative signature exposures for each sample. Typically this data can be obtained from get_sig_exposure().
cutoff	a relative exposure cutoff for filtering signatures, default is ⁠0.1%⁠.

Value

a data.frame
