An example of the input data to the MiniMax statistic with weak biological (synthetic) signal
1 |
A tibble (a modern data frame created by the tibble
package)
with five columns:
terms
the name of a pathway / gene set; this column is
called 'terms' for compatibility with pathwayCollection
objects
from package pathwayPCA
.
treated
(FOR SYNTHETIC DATA ONLY) a logical indicator
marking if the pathway was selected for treatment / synthetic
disregulation. Obviously, real pathway results would not include such
a column.
pVal_CNV
for copy number variation data, these are the
p-values for each pathway
pVal_RNAseq
for RNAseq expression data, these are the
p-values for each pathway
pVal_Prot
for protein expression data, these are the
p-values for each pathway
This data represents some results from a simulation study we conducted to show the utility of the MiniMax technique. The results in this file are from a low-signal scenario (for the treatment group, 20% of the centered and scaled genes in the treated gene sets / pathways have been "upregulated"–i.e. shocked–by +0.2 standard deviations).
For the MiniMax statistic to work, the platform-specific p-values must come from a statistical test with well-controlled Type-I error rates.
