imcExperiment data container

Containerizing IMC data into the SummarizedExperiment class, this container inherits packages from FlowSOM and diffcyt to compute clusters and test for differential abundance or state heterogeneity. Creating a flowSet is cumbersome, so we can stream-line into a summarized experiment into a quick and fast way to detect changes in cell populations.


 library(CATALYST)
 library(diffcyt)
 library(imcExperiment)
 data(imcdata)
 head(rownames(imcdata))
 imcData<-imcdata
    # for plot scatter to work need to set the rowData feature in a specific way.
    channel<-sapply(strsplit(rownames(imcData),"_"),function(x) x[3])
    channel[34:35]<-c("Ir1911","Ir1931")
    marker<-sapply(strsplit(rownames(imcData),"_"),function(x) x[2])
    rowData(imcData)<-DataFrame(channel_name=channel,marker_name=marker)
    rownames(imcData)<-marker
    plotScatter(imcData,rownames(imcData)[17:18],assay='counts')

  # convert to flowSet
  ## the warning has to do with duplicated Iridium channels.
   (fsimc <- sce2fcs(imcData, split_by = "ROIID"))
    ## now we have a flowSet.
   pData(fsimc)
   fsApply(fsimc,nrow)
   dim(exprs(fsimc[[1]]))
   exprs(fsimc[[1]])[1:5,1:5]
  ## set up the metadata files.
  head(marker_info)
   
   exper_info<-data.frame(group_id=colData(imcData)$Treatment[match(pData(fsimc)$name,
   colData(imcData)$ROIID)],
                           patient_id=colData(imcData)$Patient.Number[match(pData(fsimc)$name,
                           colData(imcData)$ROIID)],
                           sample_id=pData(fsimc)$name)
   
   ## create design
   design<-createDesignMatrix(
   exper_info,cols_design=c("group_id","patient_id"))
   
   ##set up contrast 
   contrast<-createContrast(c(0,1,0))
   nrow(contrast)==ncol(design)
   data.frame(parameters=colnames(design),contrast)
   
    ## flowSet to DiffCyt
