**Run PLS-DA Contrasts of Univariate Results**
----------------------------------------------

**Author** - Arthur Eschenlauer (University of Minnesota, [e-mail])


Motivation
----------

OPLS-DA\ :superscript:`®` and the SIMCA\ :superscript:`®` S-PLOT\ :superscript:`®` (Wiklund *et al.*, 2008) may be employed to draw attention to metabolomic features that are potential biomarkers, i.e. features that are potentially useful to discriminate to which class a sample should be assigned (e.g. Sun *et al.*, 2016).  Workflow4Metabolomics (W4M, Giacomoni *et al.*, 2014, Guitton *et al.*, 2017) provides a suite of tools for preprocessing and statistical analysis of LC-MS, GC-MS, and NMR metabolomics data; however, it does not (as of release 3.0) include a tool for making the equivalent of an S-PLOT.

The S-PLOT is computed from mean-centered, pareto-scaled data.  This plot presents the correlation of the first score vector from an OPLS-DA model with the sample-variables used to produce that model versus the covariance of the scores with the sample-variables.  For OPLS-DA, the first score vector represents the variation among the sample-variables that is related to the predictor (i.e., the contrasting factor).

The primary aims of this tool are:

- To compute and visualize multiple contrasts with OPLS-DA and the covariance vs. correlation plot.
- To write the results to data files for use in further multivariate analysis or visualization.

Note: This tool only supports categorical factors with non-numeric level-names.

Description
-----------

The purpose of the 'PLS-DA Contrasts' tool is to visualize GC-MS or LC-MS features that are possible biomarkers.

The W4M 'Univariate' tool (Thévenot *et al.*, 2015) adds the results of family-wise corrected pairwise significance-tests as columns of the **variableMetadata** dataset.
For instance, suppose that you ran Kruskal-Wallis testing for a column named 'cluster' in sampleMetadata that has values 'k1' and 'k2' and at least one other value.

- A column of variableMetadata would be labelled 'cluster_kruskal_sig' and would have values '1' and '0'; when the samples are grouped by 'cluster', '1' means that there is strong evidence against the hypothesis that there is no difference among the intensities for the feature across all sample-groups.
- A column of variableMetadata would be labelled 'cluster_kruskal_k1.k2_sig' and would have values '1' and '0', where '1' means that there is significant evidence against the hypothesis that samples from sampleMetadata whose 'cluster' column contains 'k1' or 'k2' have the same intensity for that feature.

The 'PLS-DA Contrasts' tool produces graphics and data for OPLS-DA contrasts of feature-intensities between significantly different pairs of factor-levels.  For each factor-level, the tool performs a contrast with all other factor-levels combined and then separately with each other factor-level.  

**Along the left-to-right axis, the plots show the supervised projection of the variation explained by the predictor** (i.e., the factor specified when invoking the tool); **the top-to-bottom axis displays the variation that is orthogonal to the predictor level** (i.e., independent of it).

Although this tool can be used in a purely exploratory manner by supplying the variableMetadata file without the columns added by the W4M 'Univariate' tool, **the preferred workflow is to use univariate testing to exclude features that are not significantly different and use OPLS-DA to visualize the differences identified in univariate testing** (Thévenot *et al.*, 2015); an appropriate exception would be to visualize contrasts of a specific list of metabolites.

It must be stressed that there may be no *single* definitive computational approach to select features that are reliable biomarkers, especially from a small number of samples or experiments.  A few possible choices are:

- picking features with maximum loadings along the projection parallel to the predictor (loadp),
- examining extreme values on S-PLOTs (for which covariance is linearly related to loadp),
- examining "variable importance in projection VIP for OPLS-DA" (Galindo-Prieto *et al.* 2014), and
- examining a feature's "selectivity ratio" (Rajalahti *et al.*, 2009).

In this spirit, this tool reports the S-PLOT covariance and correlation (Wiklund *op. cit.*) and VIP metrics, and it introduces an informal "salience" metric to flag features that may merit attention without dimensional reduction; future versions may add selectivity ratio.  

For a more systematic approach to biomarker identification, please consider the W4M 'biosigner' tool (Rinuardo *et al.* 2016), which applies three different identification metrics to the selection process.

Regardless of how any potential biomarker is identified, further validation analysis (e.g., independent confirmatory experiments) is needed before it is recommended for general application.

Parameters
----------

[IN] Data matrix file
  | variable x sample **dataMatrix** (tabular separated values) file of the numeric data matrix, with '.' as decimal, and 'NA' for missing values; the table must not contain metadata apart from row and column names; the row and column names must be identical to the rownames of the sample and variable metadata, respectively (see below)
  |

[IN] Sample metadata file
  | sample x metadata **sampleMetadata** (tabular separated values) file of the numeric and/or character sample metadata, with '.' as decimal and 'NA' for missing values
  |

[IN] Variable metadata file
  | variable x metadata **variableMetadata** (tabular separated values) file of the numeric and/or character variable metadata, with '.' as decimal and 'NA' for missing values
  |

[IN] Test
  | Name of the **statistical test** - a component of column names in variable metadata table
  | May be one of 'none', 'ttest', 'gwilcoxon', 'anova', 'kruskal', 'pearson', 'spearman'
  |

[IN] Factor of interest
  | Name of the **column of sampleMetadata** corresponding to the qualitative or quantitative variable
  |

[IN] Retain only pairwise-significant features
  | When **true**, for each contrast of two levels, include only those features which pass the significance threshold for that contrast.  Choosing true results in an OPLS-DA model that better reflects and visualizes the difference detected by univariate analysis, with somewhat increased reliability of prediction (as assessed by cross-validation).
  | When **false**, include all features that pass the significance threshold when testing for difference across all factor-levels.  This choice produces a plot that displays more features but is not necessarily more informative.
  | *Note that when 'Test' is 'none', all features are included in the analysis and this parameter has no effect.*
  |

[IN] Levels of interest
  | Comma-separated **level-names** (or comma-less regular expressions to match level-names) to consider in analysis; must match at least two levels; may include wild cards or regular expressions.
  |

[IN] Level-name matching
  | Indicator of **how levels are to be specified generically** (if at all) - wild cards, regular expressions, or none (no generic matching).
  |

[IN] Label how many extreme features
  | Specify the number of features at each of the loading-extremes that should be labelled (with the name of the feature) on the covariance-vs.-correlation plot; specify 'ALL' to label all features; this choice has no effect on the OPLS-DA loadings plot.
  |

[IN] Label features with extreme loado
  | If the previous parameter has limited the the number of features to be labelled at each of the loading-extremes, then the extreme values for both loado and loadp will be labelled when this parameter is set to 'yes'; otherwise (in the default case) only extreme values for loadp will be lableld.  The default was chosen to make the plot less cluttered.
  |

[OUT] Contrast-detail output PDF
  | Several plots for each two-projection OPLS-DA analysis:

- (top-left) **correlation-versus-covariance plot** of OPLS-DA results (a work-alike for the S-PLOT, computed using formula in Supplement to Wiklund, *op. cit.*); point-color becomes saturated as the "variable importance in projection to the predictive components" (VIP\ :subscript:`4,p` from Galindo-Prieto *et al.* 2014) ranges from 0.83 and 1.21 (Mehmood *et al.* 2012)
- (bottom-left) **model-overview plot** for the two projections; grey bars are the correlation coefficient for the fitted data; black bars indicate performance in cross-validation tests (Thévenot, 2017)
- (top-right) OPLS-DA **scores-plot** for the two projections (Thévenot *et al.*, 2015)
- (bottom-right) OPLS-DA **loadings-plot** for the two projections (*ibid.*)

[OUT] Contrast Correlation-Covarinace data TABULAR
  | A tab-separated values file of metadata for each feature for each contrast in which it was included.
  | Thus, a given feature may appear many times, but *the combination of featureID, factorLevel1, and factorLevel2 will be unique.*
  | This file has the following columns:

- **featureID** - feature-identifier
- **factorLevel1** - factor-level 1
- **factorLevel2** - factor-level 2 (or "other" when contrasting factor-level 1 with all other levels)
- **correlation** - correlation of the features projection explaining the difference between the features, < 0 when intensity for level 1 is greater (from formula in Supplement to Wiklund, *op. cit.*).  Note that, for a given contrast, there is a linear relationship between 'loadp' and 'correlation'.
- **covariance** - covariance of the features projection explaining the difference between the features, < 0 when intensity for level 1 is greater (from formula in *ibid.*)
- **vip4p** - "variable importance in projection" to the predictive projection, VIP\ :subscript:`4,p` (Galindo-Prieto *op. cit.*)
- **vip4o** - "variable importance in projection" to the orthogonal projection, VIP\ :subscript:`4,o` (*ibid.*)
- **loadp** - variable loading for the predictive projection (Wiklund *op. cit.*)
- **loado** - variable loading for the orthogonal projection (*ibid.*)
- **level1Level2Sig** - (Only present when a test other than "none" is chosen) '1' when feature varies significantly across all classes (i.e., not pair-wise); '0' otherwise

[OUT] Feature "Salience" data TABULAR
  | Metrics for the "salient level" for each feature, i.e., the level at which the feature is more prominent than any other level.  This is *not* at all related to the SIMCA OPLS-DA S-PLOT; rather, it is intended as a potential (and unproven) way to identify features that may suggest potential biomarkers without dimensional reduction of data.  This is a tab-separated values file having the following columns:

- **featureID** - feature identifier
- **salientLevel** - salient level, i.e., for the feature, the class-level having the greatest median intensity
- **salientRCV** - salient robust coefficient of variation, i.e., for the feature, the mean absolute deviation of the intensity for the salient level divided by the median intensity for the salient level
- **salience** - salience, i.e., for the feature, the median of the class-level having the greatest intensity divided by the mean of the medians for all class-levels

Wild card patterns to match level-names
---------------------------------------

"wild card" patterns may be used to select level-names.

- use '``?``' to match a single character
- use '``*``' to match zero or more characters
- the entire pattern must match the level name

For example

- '``??.le*``' matches '``my.level``' but not '``my.own.level``'
- '``*.level``' matches '``my.level``' and '``my.own.level``'
- '``*.level``' matches neither '``my.level``' nor '``my.own.level``'

Regular expression patterns to match level-names
------------------------------------------------

"regular expression" patterns may be used to select level-names.

POSIX 1003.2 standard regular expressions allow precise pattern-matching and are exhaustively defined at:
http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/basedefs/V1_chap09.html

However, only a few basic building blocks of regular expressions need to be mastered for most cases:

- '``^``' matches the beginning of a level-name
- '``$``' matches the end of a level-name
- '``.``' outside of square brackets matches a single character
- '``*``' matches character specified immediately before zero or more times
- Square brackets specify a set of characters to be matched.  Within square brackets:

  - '``^``' as the first character specifies that the list of characters are those that should **not** be matched.
  - '``-``' is used to specify ranges of characters

Caveat: The tool wrapper uses the comma ('``,``') to split a list of sample-level names, so **commas may not be used within regular expressions for this tool.**

First Example: Consider a field of level-names consisting of '``marq3,marq6,marq9,marq12,front3,front6,front9,front12``'

- The regular expression '``^front[0-9][0-9]*$``' will match the same sample-levels as '``front3,front6,front9,front12``'
- The regular expression '``^[a-z][a-z]3$``' will match the same sample-levels as '``front3,marq3``'
- The regular expression '``^[a-z][a-z]12$``' will match the same sample-levels as '``front12,marq12``'
- The regular expression '``^[a-z][a-z][0-9]$``' will match the same sample-levels as '``front3,front6,front9,marq3,marq6,marq9``'

Second Example: Consider these regular expression patterns as possible matches to a sample-level name '``AB0123``':

- '``^[A-Z][A-Z][0-9][0-9]*$``' - MATCHES '``**^AB0123$**``'
- '``^[A-Z][A-Z]*[0-9][0-9]*$``' - MATCHES '``**^AB0123$**``'
- '``^[A-Z][0-9]*``' - MATCHES  '``**^A** B0123$``' - first character is a letter, '``*``' can specify zero characters, and end of line did not need to be matched.
- '``^[A-Z][A-Z][0-9]``' - MATCHES  '``**^AB0** 123$``' - first two characters are letters aind the third is a digit.
- '``^[A-Z][A-Z]*[0-9][0-9]$``' - NO MATCH - the name does not end with the pattern '``[A-Z][0-9][0-9]$``', i.e., it ends with four digits, not two.
- '``^[A-Z][0-9]*$``' - NO MATCH - the pattern specifies that second character and all those that follow, if present, must be digits.

**Example 2:** Include in the analysis only features identified as overall-significant in the Univariate test.
