collapsePathways: Collapse list of enriched pathways to independent ones.

collapsePathwaysR Documentation

Collapse list of enriched pathways to independent ones.

Description

Collapse list of enriched pathways to independent ones.

Usage

collapsePathways(
  fgseaRes,
  pathways,
  stats,
  pval.threshold = 0.05,
  nperm = 10/pval.threshold,
  gseaParam = 1
)

Arguments

fgseaRes

Table with results of running fgsea(), should be filtered by p-value, for example by selecting ones with padj < 0.01.

pathways

List of pathways, should contain all the pathways present in 'fgseaRes'.

stats

Gene-level statistic values used for ranking, the same as in 'fgsea()'.

pval.threshold

Two pathways are considered dependent when p-value of enrichment of one pathways on background of another is greater then 'pval.threshold'.

nperm

Number of permutations to test for independence, should be several times greater than '1/pval.threhold'. Default value: '10/pval.threshold'.

gseaParam

GSEA parameter, same as for 'fgsea()'

Value

Named list with two elments: 'mainPathways' containing IDs of pathways not reducable to each other, and 'parentPathways' with vector describing for all the pathways to which ones they can be reduced. For pathways from 'mainPathwyas' vector 'parentPathways' contains 'NA' values.

Examples

data(examplePathways)
data(exampleRanks)
fgseaRes <- fgsea(examplePathways, exampleRanks, nperm=10000, maxSize=500)
collapsedPathways <- collapsePathways(fgseaRes[order(pval)][padj < 0.01],
                                      examplePathways, exampleRanks)
mainPathways <- fgseaRes[pathway %in% collapsedPathways$mainPathways][
                         order(-NES), pathway]
