lorenzCurve: Lorenz curve

Description

Plots a Lorenz curve derived from the frequency of the amino acid sequences.

Usage

lorenzCurve(samples, list)

Arguments

samples

A character vector of sample names in list.

list

A list data frames generated using the LymphoSeq function readImmunoSeq or productiveSeq. "frequencyCount" is a required column.

Value

Returns a Lorenz curve.

Details

The Gini coefficient is an alternative metric used to calculate repertoire diversity and is derived from the Lorenz curve. The Lorenz curve is drawn such that x-axis represents the cumulative percentage of unique sequences and the y-axis represents the cumulative percentage of reads. A line passing through the origin with a slope of 1 reflects equal frequencies of all sequences. The Gini coefficient is the ratio of the area between the line of equality and the observed Lorenz curve over the total area under the line of equality.

The plot is made using the package ggplot2 and can be reformatted using ggplot2 functions. See examples below.

Examples

Run this code

file.path <- system.file("extdata", "TCRB_sequencing", package = "LymphoSeq")

file.list <- readImmunoSeq(path = file.path)

lorenzCurve(samples = names(file.list), list = file.list)

productive.aa <- productiveSeq(file.list = file.list, aggregate = "aminoAcid")

lorenzCurve(samples = names(productive.aa), list = productive.aa)

# Change the legend labels, line colors, and add a title
samples <- c("TCRB_Day0_Unsorted", "TCRB_Day32_Unsorted", 
   "TCRB_Day83_Unsorted", "TCRB_Day949_Unsorted", "TCRB_Day1320_Unsorted")

lorenz.curve <- lorenzCurve(samples = samples, list = productive.aa)

labels <- c("Day 0", "Day 32", "Day 83", "Day 949", "Day 1320")

colors <- c("navyblue", "red", "darkgreen", "orange", "purple")

lorenz.curve + ggplot2::scale_color_manual(name = "Samples", breaks = samples, 
   labels = labels, values = colors) + ggplot2::ggtitle("Figure Title")
