batch.id

a list of array indices grouped by batches when data were profiled. The length of the list must be equal to the number of batches in the data; the number of array indices must be the same as the number of samples. This is required if stratification study design is specified in design.list; otherwise batch.id = NULL.

Details

The classification anlaysis of simulation study consists of the following main steps:

First, The generation of training and test sets is the same as precision.simultate. precision.simulate.multiclass requires the training and test sets for both estimated biological effects and estimated handling effects. The effects can be simulated as follows (using estimate.biological.effect and estimate.handling.effect). The uniformly-handled dataset are used to approximate the biological effect for each sample, and the difference between the two arrays (one from the uniformly-handled dataset and the other from the nonuniformly-handled dataset, subtracting the former from the latter) for the same sample are used to approximate the handling effect for each array in the nonuniformly-handled dataset.

The samples are randomly split into a training set and a test set, balanced by tumor type (in Qin et al., training-to-test ratio is 2:1). The arrays were then non-randomly split to a training set and a test set (in Qin et al., training set n = 128 – the first 64 and last 64 arrays in the order of array processing; test set n = 64 – the middle 64 arrays). This setup allows different pairings of arrays and samples by various different training-and-test-set splits. Furthermore, biological signal strength and confounding level of the handling effects can be modified (using reduce.signal and amplify.handling.effect).

Second, apply "virtual re-hybridization" methods (using rehybridize) on the training and test sets. There are 6 different methods to choose, besides doing no hybridization. And it is also allowed to produce different methods on training set and test set. This is specified in train.design.met and test.design.met.

Third, apply normalization on the training and test sets. There are three normalization methods to choose on the training set, median normalization, quantile normalization and variance stabilizing normalization. With these three methods, test set can be processed the same method, or corresponding frozen normalization and pool normalization. Besides, both sets can choose to do no normalization. The normalization methods are specified in train.norm.met and test.norm.met. Data preprocessing and batch effects can be adjusted specified with icombat, isva and iruv.

Fourth, choose classfication methods, specified with class.list. This will fit the chosen classification methods on the training set, all with a 5-fold cross validation and predict on the test set. The internal and external validation misclassificaiton error estimation, and the adjusted rand index on the test set will be both included in the output.

For a given split of samples to training set versus test set, N datasets will be simulated and analyzed for each array-assignment scheme. For user-defined normalization method or classification method, please refer to the vignette.
