Reduced dimension plots {scater}R Documentation

Plot specific reduced dimensions

Description

Wrapper functions to create plots for specific types of reduced dimension results in a SingleCellExperiment object.

Usage

plotPCASCE(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

plotTSNE(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

plotUMAP(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

plotDiffusionMap(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

plotMDS(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

plotNMF(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

## S4 method for signature 'SingleCellExperiment'
plotPCA(object, ..., ncomponents = 2)

Arguments

object

A SingleCellExperiment object.

...

Additional arguments to pass to plotReducedDim.

ncomponents

Numeric scalar indicating the number of dimensions components to (calculate and) plot. This can also be a numeric vector, see ?plotReducedDim for details.

Details

Each function is a convenient wrapper around plotReducedDim that searches the reducedDims slot for an appropriately named dimensionality reduction result:

Its only purpose is to streamline workflows to avoid the need to specify the dimred argument.

Value

A ggplot object.

Examples

example_sce <- mockSCE()
example_sce <- logNormCounts(example_sce)
example_sce <- runPCA(example_sce)

## Examples plotting PC1 and PC2
plotPCA(example_sce)
plotPCA(example_sce, colour_by = "Cell_Cycle")
plotPCA(example_sce, colour_by = "Cell_Cycle", shape_by = "Treatment")

## Examples plotting more than 2 PCs
plotPCA(example_sce, ncomponents = 4, colour_by = "Treatment",
    shape_by = "Mutation_Status")

## Same for TSNE:
example_sce <- runTSNE(example_sce)
plotTSNE(example_sce, colour_by="Mutation_Status")

## Same for DiffusionMaps:
example_sce <- runDiffusionMap(example_sce)
plotDiffusionMap(example_sce)

## Same for MDS plots:
example_sce <- runMDS(example_sce)
plotMDS(example_sce)
