clusterMetaclones: Cluster mutations into clones - following the tree structure

Description Usage Arguments

View source: R/clustering.R

Description

PhISCS orders all mutations into a hierarchical mutational tree; in many cases, the exact order of the acquisition of individual mutations in not unanimously determined from the data. This function computes the change in likelihood of the infered clonal assignment if two mutations are merged into a clone. Hierarchical clustering is then used to determine the clonal structure. The result is visualized and should be fine-tuned using the min.lik parameter.

Usage

1
clusterMetaclones(mutcalls, min.lik = 1, plot = T)

Arguments

mutcalls

mutcalls object of class mutationCalls for which muta_cluster has been run

min.lik

specifies the minimum difference in likelihood required. This parameter is set arbitrarily, see the vignette "Computation of clonal hierarchies and clustering of mutations" for more information.

plot

whether dendrograms should be plotted.
