In INDEED: Interactive Visualization of Integrated Differential Expression and Differential Network Analysis for Biomarker Candidate Selection Package

INDEED

Overview

This R package implements INDEED algorithm from Zuo et. al.'s Methods paper, INDEED: Integrated differential expression and differential network analysis of omic data for biomarker discovery (PMID: 27592383).

This R package will generate a list of dataframes containing information such as p-value, node degree and activity score for each biomolecule. A higher activity score indicates that the corresponding biomolecule has more neighbors connected in the differential network and their p-values are more statistically significant. It will also generate a network display to aid users' biomarker selection.

Installation

You can install INDEED from github with:

# install.packages("devtools")
devtools::install_github("ressomlab/INDEED")

Usage

Load the package.

# load INDEED
library(INDEED)
#> Loading required package: glasso

A testing dataset has been provided to the users to get familiar with INDEED R package. It contains the expression levels of 39 metabolites from 120 subjects (CIRR: 60; HCC: 60) with CIRR group named as group 0 and HCC group named as group 1.

# Data matrix contains the expression levels of 39 metabolites from 120 subjects

An example to obtain the differential network using partial correlation analysis.

# set seed to avoid randomness
set.seed(100)
# Compute rho values to run graphical lasso
pre_data <- select_rho_partial(data = Met_GU, class_label = Met_Group_GU, id = Met_name_GU, error_curve = "YES")

From the error curve figure, users can choose the rho value based on the minimum rule (red vertical line), the one standard error rule (blue horizontal line) or their preferred value.

# Choose optimal rho values to compute activity scores and build the differntial network
result <- partial_cor(data_list = pre_data, rho_group1 = 'min', rho_group2 = "min", permutation = 1000, p_val = pvalue_M_GU, permutation_thres = 0.05)

Show the network display and users can interact with it.
