GENetLib's documentation

GENetLib is a Python library for gene–environment interaction analysis via deep learning.

func_ge

G-E interaction analysis via deep learning when the input X is functional data.

Description

This function provides an approach based on neural network in conjunction with MCP and L 2 penalizations which treats functional data or discrete realizations of functional data.

See also at sim_data_func and grid_func_ge. The model is FuncGE.

Usage

func_ge(y, X, location, Z, ytype, btype, num_hidden_layers, nodes_hidden_layer, num_epochs, learning_rate1, learning_rate2, nbasis1, params1, lambda1 = None, lambda2 = None, Lambda = None, Bsplines = 20, norder1 = 4, split_type = 0, ratio = [7, 3], plot_res = True, plot_beta = True)

Parameters

This part shows the meanings and data types of parameters. Users can check the table below to build a customizable FuncGE model.

Parameter

Description

y

numeric, an array representing the response variables.

X

numeric or dict, a matrix representing the sequence data with the number of rows equal to the number of samples or a “fd” item which represents the functional data.

location

list, a list defining the sampling sites of the sequence data.

Z

numeric, a matrix representing the scalar covariates, with the number of rows equal to the number of samples.

ytype

character, “Survival”, “Binary” or “Continuous” type of the output y.

btype

character, “Bspline”, “Exponential”, “Fourier”, “Monomial” or “power” type of spline.

num_hidden_layers

numeric, number of hidden layers in the neural network.

nodes_hidden_layer

list, contains number of nodes in each hidden layer.

num_epochs

numeric, number of epochs for neural network training.

learning_rate1

numeric, learning rate of sparse layers.

learning_rate2

numeric, learning rate of hidden layers.

nbasis1

integer, an integer specifying the number of basis functions that constitutes the genetic variation function.

params1

integer, in addition to rangeval1 (a vector of length 2 giving the lower and upper limits of the range of permissible values for the genetic variation function) and nbasis1, all bases have one or two parameters unique to that basis type or shared with one other.

lambda1

numeric, tuning parameter of the first MCP penalization.

lambda2

numeric, tuning parameter of the second MCP penalization.

Lambda

numeric, tuning parameter of L2 penalization.

Bsplines

integer, an integer specifying the number of basis functions that constitutes the genetic effect function.

norder1

integer, an integer specifying the order of bsplines that constitutes the genetic effect function, which is one higher than their degree. The default of 4 gives cubic splines.

split_type

integer, types of data split. If split_type = 0, the data is divided into a training set and a validation set. If split_type = 1, the data is divided into a training set, a validation set and a test set.

ratio

list, the ratio of data split.

plot_res

bool, “True” or “False”, whether or not to show the line plot of residuals with the number of neural network epochs.

plot_beta

bool, “True” or “False”, whether or not to show the graph of predicted functions.

Value

The function func_ge outputs a tuple including training results of the FuncGE model:

  • Residual of the training set.

  • Residual of the validation set.

  • C index (y is survival) or R2 (y is continuous or binary) of the training set.

  • C index (y is survival) or R2 (y is continuous or binary) of the validation set.

  • A neural network after training.

  • Estimated coefficients of the chosen basis functions for the genetic effect function beta0(t) and interaction items betak(t).

  • The estimated genetic effect function beta(t) and interaction items betak(t).

lambda2 = 0.01
num_epochs = 50
nbasis1 = 5
params1 = 4
func_continuous = sim_data_func(n = 1500, m = 30, ytype = 'Continuous', seed = 123)
y = func_continuous['y']
Z = func_continuous['Z']
location = func_continuous['location']
X = func_continuous['X']
func_ge_res = func_ge(y, X, location, Z, 'Continuous', 'Bspline', num_hidden_layers, nodes_hidden_layer, num_epochs, learning_rate1, learning_rate2, nbasis1, params1, lambda1 = 1.1*lambda2, lambda2 = lambda2, Lambda = Lambda, Bsplines = 5, norder1 = 4, split_type = 1, ratio = [3, 1, 1], plot_res = True, plot_beta = True)
