groupwalk (version 0.1.2)

group_walk: Implements group-walk algorithm

Description

This function returns a list of q-values corresponding to hypotheses that have been partitioned into groups. For FDR control, users should report the target-hypotheses with q-values less than or equal to their choice of threshold, alpha. For further details about how group-walk works, see: https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.01.30.478144v1

Usage

group_walk(
  winning_scores,
  labels,
  all_group_ids,
  K = 40,
  return_frontier = FALSE,
  correction = 1
)

Arguments

winning_scores

A numerical vector of winning scores generated from the target-decoy competitions for each hypothesis.

labels

A vector of winning labels indicating whether it was a target (= 1) or a decoy (!= 1) for each hypothesis.

all_group_ids

A vector of group IDs associated to each hypothesis (can be recorded as integers, factors, characters).

K

A window size parameter (integer).

return_frontier

A boolean indicating whether the function should return the complete sequence of frontiers.

correction

A correction factor used to in the numerator of the estimated false discovery rate (FDR) (Use 1 for FDR control).

Value

A sequence of q-values for each hypothesis. If return_frontier = T, additionally the sequence of frontiers will be returned.
