ARSER(Yang, 2010),
JTK_CYCLE(
Hughes, 2010), and
Lomb-Scargle(Glynn, 2006) are three popular methods of detecting
rhythmic signals. ARS
can not analyze unevenly sampled datasets,
or enenly sampled datasets but with missing values, or with replicate
samples, or with non-integer sampling interval. JTK
is not
suitable to analyze unevenly sampled datasets or evenly sampled datasets
but with non-integer sampling interval. If set analysisStrategy
as "auto"
(default), meta2d
will automatically select
proper method from cirMethod
for each input dataset. If the user
clearly know that the dataset could be analyzed by each method defined
by cirMethod
and do not hope to output integrated values,
analysisStrategy
can be set as "selfUSE"
.
ARS
used here is translated from its python version which always
uses "yule-walker"
, "burg"
, and "mle"
methods(see
ar
) to fit autoregressive models to time-series
data. Fitting by "mle"
will be very slow for datasets
with many time points. If ARSmle = "auto"
is used,
meta2d
will only include "mle"
when number of time points
is smaller than 24. In addition, one evalution work(Wu, 2014) indicates
that ARS
shows relative high false positive rate in analyzing
high-resolution datasets (1h/2days and 2h/2days). JTK
(version 1)
used here is minorly modified for easing its p-value calculation problem
in analyzing datasets with missing values(reporting more significant
p-values). MetaCycle will add a new version of JTK
(may
provide a better solution for this problem) when it is released.
The power of detecting rhythmic signals for an algorithm is associated
with the nature of data and interested periodic pattern(Deckard, 2013),
which indicates that integrating analysis results from multiple methods
may be helpful to rhythmic detection. For integrating p-values,
Bonferroni correction("bonferroni"
) and Fisher's method(
"fisher"
) (Fisher, 1925; implementation code from MADAM)
could be selected, and "bonferroni"
is usually more conservative
than "fisher"
. The integrated period is arithmetic mean of
multiple periods. For integrating phase, meta2d
takes use of
mean of circular quantities. Integrated period and phase is further
used to calculate the baseline value and amplitude through fitting a
constructed periodic model.
Phases given by JTK
and LS
need to be adjusted with their
predicted period (adjustedPhase = "predictedPer"
) before
integration. If adjustedPhas = "notAdjusted"
is selected, no
integrated phase will be calculated. If set weightedPerPha
as
TRUE
, weighted scores will be used in averaging periods and
phases. Weighted scores for one method are based on all its reported
p-values, which means a weighted score assigned to any one profile will
be affected by all other profiles. It is always a problem of averaging
phases with quite different period lengths(eg. averaging two phases
with 16-hours' and 30-hours' period length). Currently, setting
minper
, maxper
and ARSdefaultPer
to a same value
may be the only way of completely eliminating such problem.
This function is originally aimed to analyze large scale perodic data(
eg. circadian transcriptome data) without individual information.
Please pay attention to data format of input file(see Examples
part). Except the first column and first row, others are time-series
experimental values(setting missing values as NA
).
meta2d
will store analysis results in different files under
outdir
instead of returning them as objects. Files named with
"ARSresult", "JTKresult" and "LSreult" store analysis results from
ARS
, JTK
and LS
respectively. The file named with
"CirOmicsresult" is integration file, and it stores integrated values in
columns with a common name-"CirOmics". The integration file also
contains p-value, FDR value, period, phase(adjusted phase if
adjustedPhase = "predictedPer"
) and amplitude values calculated
by each method.
