singR: An R package for Simultaneous non-Gaussian Component Analysis for data integration

singR

singR package is built on SING method https://github.com/thebrisklab/SING. SING is used to extract joint and individual non-gaussian components from different datasets. This is a tutorial example supporting the paper Simultaneous Non-Gaussian Component Analysis (SING) for Data Integration in Neuroimaging Benjamin Risk, Irina Gaynanova https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.00597v1

Installation

You can install singR from github with:

library(devtools)
install_github("thebrisklab/singR")

If you want to install it on Mac OS, the installation tips is here:

1.Make sure all the R packages used in singR are updated to the recommended version.

2.Try to install singR, if there is an error saying:

ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/lib/gcc/aarch64-apple-darwin20.2.0/11.0.0'
ld: warning: directory not found for option '-L/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/lib'
ld: library not found for -lgfortran
clang: error: linker command failed with exit code 1 (use -v to see invocation)

Then go to: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/etc/Makeconf Change FLIBS from

FLIBS =  -L/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/lib/gcc/aarch64-apple-darwin20.2.0/11.0.0 -L/opt/R/arm64/gfortran/lib -lgfortran -lemutls_w -lm

to

FLIBS =  -L/usr/local/gfortran/lib/gcc/aarch64-apple-darwin20.2.0/11.0.0 -L/usr/local/gfortran/lib -lgfortran -lm

3.Download the .tar.xz file from https://github.com/fxcoudert/gfortran-for-macOS/releases/tag/11-arm-alpha2 using the browser, unpack it under /usr/local so that the “gfortran” folder is there.

4.Install singR again, it should be installed successfully.

Quick Start Guide

To illustrate the use of , we provide an example .

The tutorial dataset exampledata are included in the package. We generate the SING model in @ref(eq:two) as follows. We generate joint subject scores \(M_{J}=[m_{J1},m_{J2}]\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times2}\) with \(m_{J1}\sim N(\mu_{1},I_{n}),m_{J2}\sim N(\mu_{2},I_{n})\), \(\mu_{1}=(1_{24}^{\top},-1_{24}^{\top})^{\top}\) and \(\mu_{2}=(-1_{24}^{\top},1_{24}^{\top})^{\top}\). We set \(D_{x}=I\) and \(D_{y}=diag(-5,2)\) to have differences in both sign and scale between the two datasets. We generate \(M_{Ix}\) and \(M_{Iy}\) similar to \(M_{J}\) using iid unit variance Gaussian entries with means equal to \(\mu_{3y}=(-1_{6}^{\top},1_{6}^{\top},-1_{6}^{\top},1_{6}^{\top},-1_{6}^{\top},1_{6}^{\top}-1_{6}^{\top},-1_{6}^{\top})^{\top}\), \(\mu_{4y}=(1_{24}^{\top},-1_{24}^{\top})^{\top}\), \(\mu_{3x}=(-1_{12}^{\top},1_{12}^{\top},-1_{12}^{\top},1_{12}^{\top})^{\top}\), \(\mu_{4x}=(1_{12}^{\top},-1_{12}^{\top},1_{12}^{\top},-1_{12}^{\top})^{\top}\). These means result in various degrees of correlation between the columns of the mixing matrices. For the Gaussian noise, we generate \(M_{Nx}\), \(M_{Ny}\), \(N_{x}\) and \(N_{y}\) using iid standard Gaussian mean zero entries.

Function singR performs all steps in the SING pipeline as a single function

We first illustrate the use of the wrapper function singR using the default settings. We will describe optional arguments in more detail in example 2.

example1 = singR(dX = data$dX, dY = data$dY, individual = T)

Details of the SING pipeline

We next explain each of the steps involved in SING estimation. Using these individual functions in place of the high-level singR function allows additional fine-tuning and can be helpful for large datasets.

Estimate the number of non-Gaussian components in datasets dX and dY using FOBIasymp from :

n.comp.X = NG_number(data$dX)
n.comp.Y = NG_number(data$dY)

Apply lngca separately to each dataset using the JB statistic as the measure of non-Gaussianity:

# JB on X
estX_JB = lngca(xData = data$dX, n.comp = n.comp.X, whiten = "sqrtprec",
    restarts.pbyd = 20, distribution = "JB")
Uxfull <- estX_JB$U
Mx_JB = est.M.ols(sData = estX_JB$S, xData = data$dX)

# JB on Y
estY_JB = lngca(xData = data$dY, n.comp = n.comp.Y, whiten = "sqrtprec",
    restarts.pbyd = 20, distribution = "JB")
Uyfull <- estY_JB$U
My_JB = est.M.ols(sData = estY_JB$S, xData = data$dY)

Use greedymatch to reorder \(\widehat{U}_{x}\) and \(\widehat{U}_{y}\) by descending matched correlations and use permTestJointRank to estimate the number of joint components:

matchMxMy = greedymatch(scale(Mx_JB, scale = F), scale(My_JB, scale = F),
    Ux = Uxfull, Uy = Uyfull)
permJoint <- permTestJointRank(matchMxMy$Mx, matchMxMy$My)
joint_rank = permJoint$rj

For preparing input to curvilinear_c, manually prewhiten dX and dY to get \(\widehat{L}_{x}^{-1}\) and \(\widehat{L}_{y}^{-1}\):

# Center X and Y
dX = data$dX
dY = data$dY
n = nrow(dX)
pX = ncol(dX)
pY = ncol(dY)
dXcentered <- dX - matrix(rowMeans(dX), n, pX, byrow = F)
dYcentered <- dY - matrix(rowMeans(dY), n, pY, byrow = F)

# For X Scale rowwise
est.sigmaXA = tcrossprod(dXcentered)/(pX - 1)
whitenerXA = est.sigmaXA %^% (-0.5)
xDataA = whitenerXA %*% dXcentered
invLx = est.sigmaXA %^% (0.5)

# For Y Scale rowwise
est.sigmaYA = tcrossprod(dYcentered)/(pY - 1)
whitenerYA = est.sigmaYA %^% (-0.5)
yDataA = whitenerYA %*% dYcentered
invLy = est.sigmaYA %^% (0.5)

Obtain a reasonable value for the penalty \(\rho\) by calculating the JB statistics for all the joint components:

# Calculate the Sx and Sy.
Sx = matchMxMy$Ux[1:joint_rank, ] %*% xDataA
Sy = matchMxMy$Uy[1:joint_rank, ] %*% yDataA

JBall = calculateJB(Sx) + calculateJB(Sy)

# Penalty used in curvilinear algorithm:
rho = JBall/10

Estimate \(\widehat{U}_{x}\) and \(\widehat{U}_{y}\) with curvilinear_c:

# alpha=0.8 corresponds to JB weighting of skewness and kurtosis (can
# customize to use different weighting):
alpha = 0.8
# tolerance:
tol = 1e-10

out <- curvilinear_c(invLx = invLx, invLy = invLy, xData = xDataA, yData = yDataA,
    Ux = matchMxMy$Ux, Uy = matchMxMy$Uy, rho = rho, tol = tol, alpha = alpha,
    maxiter = 1500, rj = joint_rank)

Obtain the final result:

# Estimate Sx and Sy and true S matrix
Sjx = out$Ux[1:joint_rank, ] %*% xDataA
Six = out$Ux[(joint_rank + 1):n.comp.X, ] %*% xDataA
Sjy = out$Uy[1:joint_rank, ] %*% yDataA
Siy = out$Uy[(joint_rank + 1):n.comp.Y, ] %*% yDataA

# Estimate Mj and true Mj
Mxjoint = tcrossprod(invLx, out$Ux[1:joint_rank, ])
Mxindiv = tcrossprod(invLx, out$Ux[(joint_rank + 1):n.comp.X, ])
Myjoint = tcrossprod(invLy, out$Uy[1:joint_rank, ])
Myindiv = tcrossprod(invLy, out$Uy[(joint_rank + 1):n.comp.Y, ])

# signchange to keep all the S and M skewness positive
Sjx_sign = signchange(Sjx, Mxjoint)
Sjy_sign = signchange(Sjy, Myjoint)
Six_sign = signchange(Six, Mxindiv)
Siy_sign = signchange(Siy, Myindiv)

Sjx = Sjx_sign$S
Sjy = Sjy_sign$S
Six = Six_sign$S
Siy = Siy_sign$S

Mxjoint = Sjx_sign$M
Myjoint = Sjy_sign$M
Mxindiv = Six_sign$M
Myindiv = Siy_sign$M

est.Mj = aveM(Mxjoint, Myjoint)

trueMj <- data.frame(mj1 = data$mj[, 1], mj2 = data$mj[, 2], number = 1:48)
SINGMj <- data.frame(mj1 = est.Mj[, 1], mj2 = est.Mj[, 2], number = 1:48)
