To disable this feature do: ```{r OptVerbose, eval=FALSE} # DISABLE options("ISAnalytics.verbose" = FALSE) # ENABLE options("ISAnalytics.verbose" = TRUE) ``` Some functions also produce report in a user-friendly HTML format, to set this feature: ```{r OptWidg, eval=FALSE} # DISABLE HTML REPORTS options("ISAnalytics.reports" = FALSE) # ENABLE HTML REPORTS options("ISAnalytics.reports" = TRUE) ``` # Setting up the workflow In the newer version of ISAnalytics, we introduced a "dynamic variables system", to allow more flexibility in terms of input formats. Before starting with the analysis workflow, you can specify how your inputs are structured so that the package can process them. For more information on how to do this take a look at `vignette("workflow_start", package = "ISAnalytics")`. # The first steps The first steps of the analysis workflow involve the import and parsing of data and metadata files from disk. * Import metadata with `import_association_file()` and/or `import_Vispa2_stats()` * Import data with `import_single_Vispa2Matrix()` or `import_parallel_Vispa2Matrices()` Refer to the vignette `vignette("workflow_start", package = "ISAnalytics")` for more details. # Data cleaning and pre-processing ISAnalytics offers several different functions for cleaning and pre-processing your data. * Recalibration: identifies integration events that are near to each other and condenses them into a single event whenever appropriate - `compute_near_integrations()` * Outliers identification and removal: identifies samples that are considered outliers according to user-defined logic and filters them out - `outlier_filter()` * Collision removal: identifies collision events between independent samples - `remove_collisions()`, see also the dedicated vignette `vignette("workflow_start", package = "ISAnalytics")` * Filter based on cell lineage purity: identifies and removes contamination between different cell types - `purity_filter()` * Data and metadata aggregation: allows the union of biological samples from single pcr replicates or other arbitrary aggregations - `aggregate_values_by_key()`, `aggregate_metadata()`, see also the dedicated vignette `vignette("workflow_start", package = "ISAnalytics")` # Answering biological questions You can answer very different biological questions by using the provided functions with appropriate inputs. * Descriptive statistics: `sample_statistics()` * IS relative abundance: `compute_abundance()`, `integration_alluvial_plot()` * Top abundant IS: `top_integrations()` * Top targeted genes: `top_targeted_genes()` * Grubbs test for common insertion sites (CIS): `CIS_grubbs()`, `CIS_volcano_plot()` * Fisher's exact test for gene frequency and IS distribution on target genome: `gene_frequency_fisher()`, `fisher_scatterplot()`, `circos_genomic_density()` * Clonal sharing analyses: `is_sharing()`, `iss_source()`, `sharing_heatmap()`, `sharing_venn()` * Estimate HSPCs population size: `HSC_population_size_estimate()`, `HSC_population_plot()` For more, please refer to the full function reference. # Working with other kinds of data ISAnalytics is designed to be flexible concerning input formats, thus it is suited to process various kinds of data provided the correct dynamic configuration is set. We demonstrate this with an example that uses barcodes data. The matrix is publicly available [here](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/geo/download/?acc=GSE144340&format=file&file=GSE144340%5FMatrix%5F542%2Etsv%2Egz) `r Citep(bib[["ClonalTrackingPaper"]])`, metadata was provided to us by the authors and it is available in the package additional files. ```{r} library(ISAnalytics) # Set appropriate data and metadata specs ---- metadata_specs <- tibble::tribble( ~names, ~types, ~transform, ~flag, ~tag, "ProjectID", "char", NULL, "required", "project_id", "SubjectID", "char", NULL, "required", "subject", "Tissue", "char", NULL, "required", "tissue", "TimePoint", "int", NULL, "required", "tp_days", "CellMarker", "char", NULL, "required", "cell_marker", "ID", "char", NULL, "required", "pcr_repl_id", "SourceFileName", "char", NULL, "optional", NA_character_, "Link", "char", NULL, "optional", NA_character_ ) set_af_columns_def(metadata_specs) mandatory_specs <- tibble::tribble( ~names, ~types, ~transform, ~flag, ~tag, "BarcodeSeq", "char", NULL, "required", NA_character_ ) set_mandatory_IS_vars(mandatory_specs) # Files ---- data_folder <- tempdir() utils::unzip(zipfile = system.file("testdata", "testdata.zip", package = "ISAnalytics"), exdir = data_folder, overwrite = TRUE) meta_file <- "barcodes_example_af.tsv.xz" matrix_file <- "GSE144340_Matrix_542.tsv.xz" # Data import ---- af <- import_association_file(fs::path(data_folder, meta_file), report_path = NULL ) af matrix <- import_single_Vispa2Matrix(fs::path(data_folder, matrix_file), sample_names_to = "ID" ) matrix # Descriptive stats ---- desc_stats <- sample_statistics(matrix, af, sample_key = pcr_id_column(), value_columns = "Value" )$metadata |> dplyr::rename(distinct_barcodes = "nIS") desc_stats # Aggregation and new stats ---- agg_key <- c("SubjectID") agg <- aggregate_values_by_key(matrix, af, key = agg_key, group = "BarcodeSeq", join_af_by = pcr_id_column() ) agg agg_meta_functions <- tibble::tribble( ~Column, ~Function, ~Args, ~Output_colname, "TimePoint", ~ mean(.x, na.rm = TRUE), NA, "{.col}_avg", "CellMarker", ~ length(unique(.x)), NA, "distinct_cell_marker_count", "ID", ~ length(unique(.x)), NA, "distinct_id_count" ) agg_meta <- aggregate_metadata( af, aggregating_functions = agg_meta_functions, grouping_keys = agg_key ) agg_meta agg_stats <- sample_statistics(agg, agg_meta, sample_key = agg_key, value_columns = "Value_sum" )$metadata |> dplyr::rename(distinct_barcodes = "nIS") agg_stats # Abundance ---- abundance <- compute_abundance(agg, columns = "Value_sum", key = agg_key) abundance reset_dyn_vars_config() ``` # Using the Shiny interface The package provides a simple Shiny interface for data exploration and plotting. To start the interface use: ```{r eval=FALSE} NGSdataExplorer() ``` The application main page will show a loading screen for a file. It is possible to load files also from the R environment, for example, before opening the app, we can load the included association file: ```{r eval=FALSE} data("association_file") ``` Once in the application we can choose `"association_file"` from the R environment loading option screen and click on "Import data". Once data is imported, we can click on the "Explore" tab in the upper navbar: here we will see 2 tabs, one allows interactive exploration of data in tabular form, in the other tab we can plot data. It is possible to customize several different parameters for the plot and finally save it to file with the dedicated button at the end of the page. The Shiny interface is still currently under active development and new features will be added in the near future. # Ensuring reproducibility of results Several implemented functions produce static HTML reports that can be saved on disk, or tabular files. Reports contain the relevant information on how the function was called, inputs and outputs statistics, and session info for reproducibility. # Browse documentation online and keep updated ISAnalytics has it's dedicated package website where you can browse the documentation and vignettes easily, in addition to keeping up to date with all relevant updates.
