fit_loess: Estimate Cyclic Trends of Expression Values Using Loess

In jhsiao999/peco: A Supervised Approach for Predicting Cell Cycle Progression Using Single-Cell RNA-seq Data

Description

Estimate Cyclic Trends of Expression Values Using Loess

Usage

fit_loess(yy, time)

Arguments

yy	A vector of gene expression values for a single gene. The expression values are assumed to have been normalized and transformed to standard normal distribution.
time	A vector of angles (cell cycle phase).

Value

A list with two elements: pred.yy, the estimated cyclic trend; pve, proportion of variance in gene expression levels explained by the cyclic trend.

Examples

library(SingleCellExperiment)
data(sce_top101genes)

# Select top 10 cyclic genes.
sce_top10 <- sce_top101genes[order(rowData(sce_top101genes)$pve_fucci,
                                   decreasing=TRUE)[1:10],]
coldata <- colData(sce_top10)

# Get cell cycle phase based on FUCCI scores.
theta <- coldata$theta
names(theta) <- rownames(coldata)

# Normalize expression counts.
sce_top10 <- data_transform_quantile(sce_top10, ncores=2)
exprs_quant <- assay(sce_top10, "cpm_quantNormed")

# Order FUCCI phase and expression.
theta_ordered <- theta[order(theta)]
yy_ordered <- exprs_quant[1, names(theta_ordered)]

fit <- fit_loess(yy_ordered, time=theta_ordered)
