Sparse Partial Least Squares (sPLS)

Description

Function to perform sparse Partial Least Squares (sPLS). The sPLS approach combines both integration and variable selection simultaneously on two data sets in a one-step strategy.

Usage

spls(
  X,
  Y,
  ncomp = 2,
  mode = c("regression", "canonical", "invariant", "classic"),
  keepX,
  keepY,
  scale = TRUE,
  tol = 1e-06,
  max.iter = 100,
  near.zero.var = FALSE,
  logratio = "none",
  multilevel = NULL,
  all.outputs = TRUE,
  verbose.call = FALSE
)

Arguments

X	numeric matrix of predictors with the rows as individual observations. missing values (NAs) are allowed.
Y	numeric matrix of response(s) with the rows as individual observations matching X. missing values (NAs) are allowed.
ncomp	Positive Integer. The number of components to include in the model. Default to 2.
mode	Character string indicating the type of PLS algorithm to use. One of "regression", "canonical", "invariant" or "classic". See Details.
keepX	numeric vector of length ncomp, the number of variables to keep in X-loadings. By default all variables are kept in the model.
keepY	numeric vector of length ncomp, the number of variables
scale	Logical. If scale = TRUE, each block is standardized to zero means and unit variances (default: TRUE)
tol	Positive numeric used as convergence criteria/tolerance during the iterative process. Default to 1e-06.
max.iter	Integer, the maximum number of iterations. Default to 100.
near.zero.var	Logical, see the internal nearZeroVar function (should be set to TRUE in particular for data with many zero values). Setting this argument to FALSE (when appropriate) will speed up the computations. Default value is FALSE.
logratio	Character, one of ('none','CLR') specifies the log ratio transformation to deal with compositional values that may arise from specific normalisation in sequencing data. Default to 'none'. See ?logratio.transfo for details.
multilevel	Numeric, design matrix for repeated measurement analysis, where multilevel decomposition is required. For a one factor decomposition, the repeated measures on each individual, i.e. the individuals ID is input as the first column. For a 2 level factor decomposition then 2nd AND 3rd columns indicate those factors. See examples.
all.outputs	Logical. Computation can be faster when some specific (and non-essential) outputs are not calculated. Default = TRUE.
verbose.call	Logical (Default=FALSE), if set to TRUE then the $call component of the returned object will contain the variable values for all parameters. Note that this may cause large memory usage.

Details

spls function fit sPLS models with 1, \ldots ,ncomp components. Multi-response models are fully supported. The X and Y datasets can contain missing values.

Value

spls returns an object of class "spls", a list that contains the following components:

call	if verbose.call = FALSE, then just the function call is returned. If verbose.call = TRUE then all the inputted values are accessable via this component
X	the centered and standardized original predictor matrix.
Y	the centered and standardized original response vector or matrix.
ncomp	the number of components included in the model.
mode	the algorithm used to fit the model.
keepX	number of X variables kept in the model on each component.
keepY	number of Y variables kept in the model on each component.
variates	list containing the variates.
loadings	list containing the estimated loadings for the X and Y variates.
names	list containing the names to be used for individuals and variables.
tol	the tolerance used in the iterative algorithm, used for subsequent S3 methods
iter	Number of iterations of the algorithm for each component
max.iter	the maximum number of iterations, used for subsequent S3 methods
nzv	list containing the zero- or near-zero predictors information.
scale	whether scaling was applied per predictor.
logratio	whether log ratio transformation for relative proportion data was applied, and if so, which type of transformation.
prop_expl_var	Proportion of variance explained per component (note that contrary to PCA, this amount may not decrease as the aim of the method is not to maximise the variance, but the covariance between data sets).
input.X	numeric matrix of predictors in X that was input, before any saling / logratio / multilevel transformation.
mat.c	matrix of coefficients from the regression of X / residual matrices X on the X-variates, to be used internally by predict.
defl.matrix	residual matrices X for each dimension.

missing values

The estimation of the missing values can be performed using the impute.nipals function. Otherwise, missing values are handled by element-wise deletion in the pls function without having to delete the rows with missing data.

multilevel

Multilevel (s)PLS enables the integration of data measured on two different data sets on the same individuals. This approach differs from multilevel sPLS-DA as the aim is to select subsets of variables from both data sets that are highly positively or negatively correlated across samples. The approach is unsupervised, i.e. no prior knowledge about the sample groups is included.

logratio and multilevel

logratio transform and multilevel analysis are performed sequentially as internal pre-processing step, through logratio.transfo and withinVariation respectively.
