snpStats (version 1.22.0)

sm.compare: Compare two SnpMatrix objects

Description

For quality control purposes, it is sometimes necessary to compare genotype data derived from different sources. This function facilitates this.

Usage

sm.compare(obj1, obj2, row.wise = TRUE, col.wise = TRUE)

Arguments

obj1
The first of the two SnpMatrix objects to be compared
obj2
The second SnpMatrix object
row.wise
Calculate comparison statistics aggregated in a row-wise manner
col.wise
Calculate column-wise comparison statistics

Value

If only one of the row-wise and column-wise summaries are to be calculated, the return value is a matrix with rows defined by subjects or SNPs and columns giving counts of:
Agree
Agreements (all)
Disagree
Disgreements (all)
NA.agree
Genotype coded NA in both objects
NA.disagree
Genotype coded NA in only one object
Hom.agree
Objects agree and genotype is homozygous
Hom.switch
Genotype coded as homozygous in both objects, but alleles switched
Het.agree
Genotype coded as heterozygous in both objects
Het.Hom
Genotype coded as heterozygous in one object and homozygous in the other
If both row-wise and column-wise summaries are computed (the default behaviour) , the function returns a list containing two matrices of the form described above. These are named row.wise and col.wise

Details

Initially row and column names of the two objects are compared to identify subsets of subjects and SNPs which they have in common. Then, every instance of a SNP genotype in the two objects are compared and agreements and disagreements counted by row and/or by column.
