splsda: Sparse Partial Least Squares Discriminant Analysis (sPLS-DA)

Description

Function to perform sparse Partial Least Squares to classify samples (supervised analysis) and select variables.

Usage

splsda(X,
Y,
ncomp = 2,
mode = c("regression", "canonical", "invariant", "classic"),
keepX,
scale = TRUE,
tol = 1e-06,
max.iter = 100,
near.zero.var = FALSE,
logratio="none", # one of "none", "CLR"
multilevel=NULL,
all.outputs = TRUE)

Arguments

X

numeric matrix of predictors. NAs are allowed.

Y

a factor or a class vector for the discrete outcome.

ncomp

the number of components to include in the model (see Details). Default is set to from one to the rank of X.

mode

character string. What type of algorithm to use, (partially) matching one of "regression", "canonical", "invariant" or "classic". See Details.

keepX

numeric vector of length ncomp, the number of variables to keep in \(X\)-loadings. By default all variables are kept in the model.

scale

boleean. If scale = TRUE, each block is standardized to zero means and unit variances (default: TRUE)

tol

Convergence stopping value.

max.iter

integer, the maximum number of iterations.

near.zero.var

boolean, see the internal nearZeroVar function (should be set to TRUE in particular for data with many zero values). Setting this argument to FALSE (when appropriate) will speed up the computations. Default value is FALSE

logratio

one of ('none','CLR') specifies the log ratio transformation to deal with compositional values that may arise from specific normalisation in sequencing dadta. Default to 'none'

multilevel

sample information for multilevel decomposition for repeated measurements. A numeric matrix or data frame indicating the repeated measures on each individual, i.e. the individuals ID. See examples.

all.outputs

boolean. Computation can be faster when some specific (and non-essential) outputs are not calculated. Default = TRUE.

Value

splsda returns an object of class "splsda", a list that contains the following components:

X

the centered and standardized original predictor matrix.

Y

the centered and standardized indicator response vector or matrix.

ind.mat

the indicator matrix.

ncomp

the number of components included in the model.

keepX

number of \(X\) variables kept in the model on each component.

variates

list containing the variates.

loadings

list containing the estimated loadings for the X and Y variates.

names

list containing the names to be used for individuals and variables.

nzv

list containing the zero- or near-zero predictors information.

tol

the tolerance used in the iterative algorithm, used for subsequent S3 methods

iter

Number of iterations of the algorthm for each component

max.iter

the maximum number of iterations, used for subsequent S3 methods

scale

boolean indicating whether the data were scaled in MINT S3 methods

logratio

whether logratio transformations were used for compositional data

explained_variance

amount of variance explained per component (note that contrary to PCA, this amount may not decrease as the aim of the method is not to maximise the variance, but the covariance between X and the dummy matrix Y).

mat.c

matrix of coefficients from the regression of X / residual matrices X on the X-variates, to be used internally by predict.

defl.matrix

residual matrices X for each dimension.

Details

splsda function fits an sPLS model with \(1, \ldots ,\)ncomp components to the factor or class vector Y. The appropriate indicator (dummy) matrix is created. Logratio transform and multilevel analysis are performed sequentially as internal pre-processing step, through logratio.transfo and withinVariation respectively.

Logratio can only be applied if the data do not contain any 0 value (for count data, we thus advise the normalise raw data with a 1 offset).
