xEnricherYours
is supposed to conduct enrichment analysis given
the input data and the ontology in query. It returns an object of class
"eTerm". Enrichment analysis is based on either Fisher's exact test or
Hypergeometric test.

data.file |
an input data file, containing a list of entities (e.g. genes or SNPs) to test. The entities can be anything, for example, in this file http://dcgor.r-forge.r-project.org/data/InterPro/InterPro.txt, the entities are InterPro domains (InterPro). As seen in this example, entries in the first column must be domains. If the file also contains other columns, these additional columns will be ignored. Alternatively, the data.file can be a matrix or data frame, assuming that input file has been read. Note: the file should use the tab delimiter as the field separator between columns |
annotation.file |
an input annotation file containing annotations between entities and ontology terms. For example, a file containing annotations between InterPro domains and GO Molecular Function (GOMF) terms can be found in http://dcgor.r-forge.r-project.org/data/InterPro/Domain2GOMF.txt. As seen in this example, the input file must contain two columns: 1st column for domains, 2nd column for ontology terms. If there are additional columns, these columns will be ignored. Alternatively, the annotation.file can be a matrix or data frame, assuming that input file has been read. Note: the file should use the tab delimiter as the field separator between columns |
background.file |
an input background file containing a list of entities as the test background. The file format is the same as 'data.file'. By default, it is NULL meaning all annotatable entities (i.g. those entities in 'annotation.file') are used as background |
size.range |
the minimum and maximum size of members of each term in consideration. By default, it sets to a minimum of 10 but no more than 2000 |
min.overlap |
the minimum number of overlaps. Only those terms with members that overlap with input data at least min.overlap (3 by default) will be processed |
test |
the statistic test used. It can be "fisher" for using fisher's exact test, "hypergeo" for using hypergeometric test, or "binomial" for using binomial test. Fisher's exact test is to test the independence between gene group (genes belonging to a group or not) and gene annotation (genes annotated by a term or not), and thus compare sampling to the left part of background (after sampling without replacement). Hypergeometric test is to sample at random (without replacement) from the background containing annotated and non-annotated genes, and thus compare sampling to background. Unlike hypergeometric test, binomial test is to sample at random (with replacement) from the background with the constant probability. In terms of the ease of finding the significance, they are in order: hypergeometric test > binomial test > fisher's exact test. In other words, in terms of the calculated p-value, hypergeometric test < binomial test < fisher's exact test |
p.adjust.method |
the method used to adjust p-values. It can be one of "BH", "BY", "bonferroni", "holm", "hochberg" and "hommel". The first two methods "BH" (widely used) and "BY" control the false discovery rate (FDR: the expected proportion of false discoveries amongst the rejected hypotheses); the last four methods "bonferroni", "holm", "hochberg" and "hommel" are designed to give strong control of the family-wise error rate (FWER). Notes: FDR is a less stringent condition than FWER |
verbose |
logical to indicate whether the messages will be displayed in the screen. By default, it sets to false for no display |
an object of class "eTerm", a list with following components:
term_info
: a matrix of nTerm X 4 containing snp/gene set
information, where nTerm is the number of terms, and the 4 columns are
"id" (i.e. "Term ID"), "name" (i.e. "Term Name"), "namespace" and
"distance"
annotation
: a list of terms containing annotations, each
term storing its annotations. Always, terms are identified by "id"
g
: an igraph object to represent DAG
data
: a vector containing input data in consideration. It
is not always the same as the input data as only those mappable are
retained
background
: a vector containing the background data. It is
not always the same as the input data as only those mappable are
retained
overlap
: a list of overlapped snp/gene sets, each storing
snps overlapped between a snp/gene set and the given input data (i.e.
the snps of interest). Always, gene sets are identified by "id"
fc
: a vector containing fold changes
zscore
: a vector containing z-scores
pvalue
: a vector containing p-values
adjp
: a vector containing adjusted p-values. It is the p
value but after being adjusted for multiple comparisons
cross
: a matrix of nTerm X nTerm, with an on-diagnal cell
for the overlapped-members observed in an individaul term, and
off-diagnal cell for the overlapped-members shared betwene two terms
call
: the call that produced this result
None
