ssea.finish.fdr: Organize and save FDR results of the MSEA

Description

ssea.finish.fdr estimates the FDR values of the enrichment P-values belonging to the modules. It also gets the other module information such as size (gene number), length (marker number), density, etc., sorts the modules according to P-values, saves this information into relevant files.

Usage

ssea.finish.fdr(job)

Arguments

job

data list including module-realted results of MSEA process:

folder: output folder for results.
modules: module names.
results: data frame including indexed module identities
(MODULE) and enrichment P-values (P).
database: database including indexed identities for 
modules, genes, and markers.

Value

job

data list including the organized module-related results of MSEA process:

results: updated information of modules: 
number of distinct member genes (NGENES), 
number of distinct member markers (NLOCI), 
ratio of distinct to non-distinct markers (DENSITY), 
false discovery rates (FDR).

Examples

Run this code

job.msea <- list()
job.msea$label <- "hdlc"
job.msea$folder <- "Results"
job.msea$genfile <- system.file("extdata", 
"genes.hdlc_040kb_ld70.human_eliminated.txt", package="Mergeomics")
job.msea$marfile <- system.file("extdata", 
"marker.hdlc_040kb_ld70.human_eliminated.txt", package="Mergeomics")
job.msea$modfile <- system.file("extdata", 
"modules.mousecoexpr.liver.human.txt", package="Mergeomics")
job.msea$inffile <- system.file("extdata", 
"coexpr.info.txt", package="Mergeomics")
job.msea$nperm <- 100 ## default value is 20000

## ssea.start() process takes long time while merging the genes sharing high
## amounts of markers (e.g. loci). it is performed with full module list in
## the vignettes. Here, we used a very subset of the module list (1st 10 mods
## from the original module file) and we collected the corresponding genes
## and markers belonging to these modules:
moddata <- tool.read(job.msea$modfile)
gendata <- tool.read(job.msea$genfile)
mardata <- tool.read(job.msea$marfile)
mod.names <- unique(moddata$MODULE)[1:min(length(unique(moddata$MODULE)),
10)]
moddata <- moddata[which(!is.na(match(moddata$MODULE, mod.names))),]
gendata <- gendata[which(!is.na(match(gendata$GENE, 
unique(moddata$GENE)))),]
mardata <- mardata[which(!is.na(match(mardata$MARKER, 
unique(gendata$MARKER)))),]

## save this to a temporary file and set its path as new job.msea$modfile:
tool.save(moddata, "subsetof.coexpr.modules.txt")
tool.save(gendata, "subsetof.genfile.txt")
tool.save(mardata, "subsetof.marfile.txt")
job.msea$modfile <- "subsetof.coexpr.modules.txt"
job.msea$genfile <- "subsetof.genfile.txt"
job.msea$marfile <- "subsetof.marfile.txt"
## run ssea.start() and prepare for this small set: (due to the huge runtime)
job.msea <- ssea.start(job.msea)
job.msea <- ssea.prepare(job.msea)
job.msea <- ssea.control(job.msea)
job.msea <- ssea.analyze(job.msea)
job.msea <- ssea.finish(job.msea)

## Estimate mod FDR values, sort according to significance, save full results:
job.msea <- ssea.finish.fdr(job.msea)

## Remove the temporary files used for the test:
file.remove("subsetof.coexpr.modules.txt")
file.remove("subsetof.genfile.txt")
file.remove("subsetof.marfile.txt")
