--- title: "Tutorial for the R MMD package" author: "Francisco Perez-Reche" output: rmarkdown::html_vignette vignette: > %\VignetteEngine{knitr::rmarkdown} %\VignetteIndexEntry{Tutorial for the R MMD package} %\VignetteEncoding{UTF-8} --- ```{r setup, include=FALSE} knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE) ``` The MMD package was developed in [1]. This tutorial illustrates the functioning of the MMD package using *Campylobacter* isolates from human and five animal sources (Cattle, Chicken, Pig, Sheep, and WB). For illustration purposes, the example uses genotypes of reduced size consisting 10 isolates per host reservoir described with genotypes of 10 SNPs. The data used in this tutorial comes with the MMD package. Other datasets studied in Ref. [1] are available from this link . To use these examples, simply download the data from the link. ## Source attribution ### Setting the parameters for source attribution Set the file names of the file csv containing genotype data and file pop containing population names used in this example: ```{r} datafile <- system.file("extdata", "Campylobacter_10SNP_HlW.csv", package = "MMD") popfile <- system.file("extdata", "Campylobacter_10SNP_HlW.pop", package = "MMD") ``` Note that the full path to the files should be specified. For example: ```{r} datafile popfile ``` This example searches for the data from the MMD package which is found using `system.file`. In general, however, in this step you should specify the path to the directory where you have stored the data you want to analyse.
Set the name of the population to be attributed. In this case, we want to attribute *Campylobacter* isolates from "Human": ```{r} ToAttribute <- "Human" ``` Introduce the population names of the genotypes to be used as sources (these are available from the file *.pop): ```{r} sourcenames <- c("Cattle","Chicken","Pig","Sheep","WB") ``` Set the maximum number of loci to be used in the analysis: ```{r} NL <- 100 ``` `NL` was set to 100 loci as an example but the program will use 10 loci since the genotypes in the file `Campylobacter_10SNP_HlW.csv` consist of 10 SNPs. ### Running the function `MMD_attr` for source attribution (`verbose=FALSE` by default even if `verbose` is not specified; set `verbose=TRUE` to see a progress bar for computations if you wish): ```{r} attribution <- MMD_attr(datafile,popfile,NL,sourcenames,ToAttribute,verbose=FALSE) ``` ### Source attribution results: In this example, the source attribution results were stored in `attribution`: ```{r, eval=F} attribution ``` The list contains 7 items: * Number of individuals of unknown origin (*Campylobacter* isolates from humans):

[[7]]
[1] 0.01 For example, a bar chart for the mean of the probability of attribution of *Campylobacter* human isolates to food sources can be easily obtained from `attribution` as follows: ```{r} barplot(height = attribution[[3]]$mean,names.arg = attribution[[3]]$Sources,las=2,cex.names = 0.8,main=NULL, ylab = expression("Attribution probability, p"[s])) ``` ## Self-attribution This example illustrates self-attribution of *Campylobacter* isolates from the pig reservoir of the dataset used above. The genotypes from pig are split into training and test datasets. The test dataset is defined by randomly drawing 50% of the isolates from pig reservoir; the remaining isolates define the training dataset. ### Setting the parameters To run self-attribution, the function `MMD_attr` can be executed as follows: ```{r} SelfAttribution <- MMD_attr(datafile,popfile,NL,sourcenames,ToAttribute = "Pig",SelfA = "yes",optq = "yes", pqmin = 0, pqmax = 0.5, np=1000, fSelfA = 0.5) ``` Here,
* `ToAttribute` is set to the "Pig" reservoir which will be analysed for self-attribution.
* `SelfA` is set to "yes" to do self-attribution (`SelfA` is set to "no" by default in the function `MMD_attr`, i.e. it is set by default to do source attribution instead of self-attribution).
* `fSelfA` is the fraction of genotypes in the "Pig" reservoir used to define the test dataset. Here, this is set to 0.5 which, in fact, is the default value.
* `optq` is set to "yes" to optimise the q-quantile for self-attribution accuracy (`optq` is set to "no" by default in the function `MMD_attr`).
* Optimisation of the q-quantile is done by considering a partition of `np` values in the interval `[pqmin,pqmax]` of the q-quantile. * The value of `verbose` was not explicitly indicated and the function will use the default value, `verbose=FALSE`, so that a progress bar will not be displayed. ### Self-attribution results The results are stored in the list `SelfAttribution`: ```{r, eval=FALSE} SelfAttribution ``` The list contains 8 items: * Number of individuals of unknown origin (pig *Campylobacter* isolates from the test dataset):

..... In this case, the bar chart for the probability that isolates of unknown origin are attributed to each of the sources can be obtained as follows: ```{r} barplot(height = SelfAttribution[[3]]$mean,names.arg = SelfAttribution[[3]]$Sources,las=2,cex.names = 0.8,main=NULL, ylab = expression("Attribution probability, p"[s])) ``` Despite the small number of SNPs used in the example dataset, it is interesting that the program predicts a relatively high probability of attribution to the correct source of pig *Campylobacter* isolates. ## Selection of informative loci The package allows informative loci to be selected in terms of entropy and redundancy measures. ### Entropy measures `MMD_Entropy` provides entropy measures for individual loci. It can be called as follows: ```{r} EntropyLoci <- MMD_Entropy(datafile,popfile,NL,sourcenames) ``` Again, here you can specify `verbose=TRUE` to see a progress bar for computations if you wish. #### Outputs of `MMD_Entropy` The results give a list of 7 items: ```{r, eval=FALSE} EntropyLoci ``` * Number of loci used for the calculation:

Time difference of 0.06805801 secs Using the list `EntropyLoci` one can easily plot histograms for the different entropies, ```{r} histHlT <- hist(EntropyLoci[[6]]$HlT,col="#1C86EE",main=NULL,xlab=expression(paste("H"^"T")),ylab="Frequency") histHlB <- hist(EntropyLoci[[6]]$HlB,col="#1C86EE",main=NULL,xlab=expression(paste("H"^"B")),ylab="Frequency") histHlW <- hist(EntropyLoci[[6]]$HlW,col="#1C86EE",main=NULL,xlab=expression(paste("H"^"W")),ylab="Frequency") ``` or a scatterplot of the entropy between sources vs. entropy within sources for each locus: ```{r} plot(cbind(EntropyLoci[[6]]$HlW,EntropyLoci[[6]]$HlB),col="#1C86EE",main=NULL, xlab=expression(paste("H"^"W")),ylab=expression(paste("H"^"B"))) ``` ### Redundancy of loci In a sequential selection of loci, the redundancy of the n-th locus can be calculated using the funtion `MMD_Rn` as follows: ```{r} RedundancyLoci <- MMD_Rn(datafile,popfile,NL,sourcenames) ``` #### Outputs of `MMD_Rn` The results give a list of 9 items: ```{r, eval=F} RedundancyLoci ``` * Number of loci used for the calculation:
