shm: Plot Spatial Heatmaps

shmR Documentation

Plot Spatial Heatmaps

Description

The input are a pair of annotated SVG (aSVG) file and formatted numeric data (vector, data.frame, SummarizedExperiment). In the aSVG, spatial features (tissues, organs, etc) are represented by shapes and assigned unique identifiers, and the numeric data are measured from these spatial features. In biological applications, aSVGs are anatomical structures, and numeric data are expression values of genes, proteins, metabolites, etc assayed from spatial features. Numeric data are mapped to spatial features in aSVGs according to the same identifiers between the two. The mapped features are filled with colors translated from the numeric data while other features are transparent. The output images are termed spatial heatmaps (SHMs).

This function is designed multi-functional for maximal flexibility. For example, SHMs can be organized horizontally by each gene or each experimental variable to facilitate comparisons. In multi-layer anotomical structures, selected tissues can be set transparent to expose burried features in lower layers. The color scale is customizable to highlight difference across features. This function also works with many other types of spatial data, such as population data plotted to geographic maps.

assay.na

The name of target assay to use when data is SummarizedExperiment.

sam.factor

con.factor

The column name corresponding to experimental variables in colData of SummarizedExperiment. It can be NULL if column names of in the assay slot already follows the scheme "spatialFeature__variable", or no variable is associated with the data.

ID

A character vector of assyed items (e.g. genes, proteins) whose abudance values are used to color the aSVG.

charcoal

Logical, if TRUE the raster image will be turned black and white.

alpha.overlay

The opacity of the raster image under the SHM when superimposing raster images with SHMs. The default is 1.

lay.shm

One of 'gene', 'con', or 'none'. If 'gene', SHMs are organized horizontally by each biomolecule (gene, protein, or metabolite, etc.) and variables are sorted under each biomolecule. If 'con', SHMs are organized horizontally by each experiment vairable and biomolecules are sorted under each variable. If 'none', SHMs are organized by the biomolecule order in ID and variables follow the order they appear in data.

ncol

The number of columns to display SHMs, which does not include the legend plot.

h

The height (0-1) of color key and SHM/co-visualization plots in the middle, not including legend plots.

col.com

A vector of color components used to build the color scale. The default is ‘c(’yellow', 'orange', 'red')'.

col.bar

One of 'selected' or 'all', the former uses expression values of ID to build the color scale while the latter uses all expression values from the data. The default is 'selected'.

thr

Values above the max or below min will be assigned the same color as the max or min respectively. The default is c(NA, NA) and the min and max values in the data will be used. If one needs to change only max or min, the other should be NA.

cores
