Identify posterior mean differences

Description

Compute a criterion based on Credible Intervals (CI) to determine whether the posterior t-distributions of groups should be considered different enough to deserve further examination. Two groups are considered probably 'distinct' if the Credible Interval of level CI_level of their respective posterior t-distributions do not overlap.

Usage

identify_diff(posterior, CI_level = 0.05, nb_samples = 1000)

Arguments

posterior

A tibble, typically coming from a posterior_mean() function, containing the parameters of the multivariate posterior t-distributions for the mean of the considered groups and draws for each peptide.
CI_level

A number, defining the order of quantile chosen to assess differences between groups.
nb_samples

A number (optional), indicating the number of samples to draw from the posteriors for computing mean and credible intervals . Only used if posterior is multivariate, typically coming from a multi_posterior_mean() function.

Value

A tibble, indicating which peptides and groups seem to be different

Examples

TRUE

Multivariate posterior distribution of the means

Description

Compute the multivariate posterior distribution of the means between multiple groups, for multiple correlated peptides. The function accounts for multiple imputations through the Draw identifier in the dataset.

Usage

multi_posterior_mean(
  data,
  mu_0 = NULL,
  lambda_0 = 1,
  Sigma_0 = NULL,
  nu_0 = 10,
  vectorised = FALSE
)

Arguments

data

A tibble or data frame containing imputed data sets for all groups. Required columns: Peptide, Group, Sample, Output. If missing data have been estimated from multiple imputations, each imputation should be identified in an optional Draw column.
mu_0

A vector, corresponding to the prior mean. If NULL, all groups are initialised with the same empirical mean for each peptide.
lambda_0

A number, corresponding to the prior covariance scaling parameter.
Sigma_0

A matrix, corresponding to the prior covariance parameter. If NULL, the identity matrix will be used by default.
nu_0

A number, corresponding to the prior degrees of freedom.
vectorised

A boolean, indicating whether we should used a vectorised version of the function. Default when nb_peptides < 30. If nb_peptides > 30, there is a high risk that the vectorised version would be slower.

Value

A tibble providing the parameters of the multivariate posterior t-distribution for the mean of the considered groups and draws for each peptide.

Examples

TRUE

Plot the posterior distribution of the difference of means

Description

Display the posterior distribution of the difference of means between two groups for a specific peptide. If only one group is provide, the function display the posterior distribution of the mean for this specific group instead. The function provides additional tools to represent information to help inference regarding the difference between groups (reference at 0 on the x-axis, probability of group1 > group2 and conversely).

Usage

plot_distrib(
  sample_distrib,
  group1 = NULL,
  group2 = NULL,
  peptide = NULL,
  prob_CI = 0.95,
  show_prob = TRUE,
  mean_bar = TRUE,
  index_group1 = NULL,
  index_group2 = NULL
)

Arguments

sample_distrib

A data frame, typically coming from the sample_distrib() function, containing the following columns: Peptide, Group and Sample. This argument should contain the empirical posterior distributions to be displayed.
group1

A character string, corresponding to the name of the group for which we plot the posterior distribution of the mean. If NULL (default), the first group appearing in sample_distrib is displayed. If group2 is provided, the posterior difference of the groups is displayed instead.
group2

A character string, corresponding to the name of the group we want to compare to group1. If NULL (default), only the posterior distribution of the mean for group1 is displayed.
peptide

A character string, corresponding to the name of the peptide for which we plot the posterior distribution of the mean. If NULL (default), only the first appearing in sample_distrib is displayed.
prob_CI

A number, between 0 and 1, corresponding the level of the Credible Interval (CI), represented as side regions (in red) of the posterior distribution. The default value (0.95) display the 95% CI, meaning that the central region (in blue) contains 95% of the probability distribution of the mean.
show_prob

A boolean, indicating whether we display the label of probability comparisons between the two groups.
mean_bar

A boolean, indicating whether we display the vertical bar corresponding to 0 on the x-axis (when comparing two groups), of the mean value of the distribution (when displaying a unique group).
index_group1

A character string, used as the index of group1 in the legends. If NULL (default), group1 is used.
index_group2

A character string, used as the index of group2 in the legends. If NULL (default), group2 is used.

Value

Plot of the required posterior distribution.

Examples

TRUE

Posterior distribution of the means

Description

Compute the posterior distribution of the means between multiple groups. All peptides are considered independent from one another.

Sample from a t-distribution

Description

Sample from a (possibly multivariate) t-distribution. This function can be used to sample both from a prior or posterior, depending on the value of parameters provided.

Usage

sample_distrib(posterior, nb_sample = 1000)

Arguments

posterior

A tibble or data frame, detailing for each Peptide and each Group, the value of the t-distribution parameters. The expected format is typically a return from a posterior_mean() function. Expected columns in the univariate case: mu, lambda, alpha, beta. Expected columns in the multivariate case: mu, lambda, Sigma, nu.
nb_sample

A number, indicating the number of samples generated for each couple Peptide-Group.

Value

A tibble containing the Peptide, Group and Sample columns. The samples of each Peptide-Group couple provide an empirical t-distribution that can be used to compute and display differences between groups.
