Perform differential expression test between two groups on adata object for each gene.
This function wraps the selected statistical test for the scenario of a two sample comparison. All unit_test offered in this wrapper test for the difference of the mean parameter of both samples. The exact unit_test are as follows (assuming the group labels are saved in a column named “group”):
- “lrt” - (log-likelihood ratio test):
Requires the fitting of 2 generalized linear models (full and reduced). The models are automatically assembled as follows, use the de.test.lrt() function if you would like to perform a different test.
full model location parameter: ~ 1 + group
full model scale parameter: ~ 1 + group
reduced model location parameter: ~ 1
reduced model scale parameter: ~ 1 + group
- “wald” - Wald test:
Requires the fitting of 1 generalized linear models. model location parameter: ~ 1 + group model scale parameter: ~ 1 + group Test the group coefficient of the location parameter model against 0.
- “t-test” - Welch’s t-test:
Doesn’t require fitting of generalized linear models. Welch’s t-test between both observation groups.
- “rank” - Wilcoxon rank sum (Mann-Whitney U) test:
Doesn’t require fitting of generalized linear models. Wilcoxon rank sum (Mann-Whitney U) test between both observation groups.
- Parameters
data – Array-like, or anndata.Anndata object containing observations. Input data matrix (observations x features) or (cells x genes).
grouping –
str, array
column in data.obs/sample_description which contains the split of observations into the two groups.
array of length
num_observations
containing group labels
as_numeric – Which columns of sample_description to treat as numeric and not as categorical. This yields columns in the design matrix which do not correpond to one-hot encoded discrete factors. This makes sense for number of genes, time, pseudotime or space for example.
test –
str, statistical test to use. Possible options:
’wald’: default
’lrt’
’t-test’
’rank’
gene_names – optional list/array of gene names which will be used if
data
does not implicitly store thesesample_description – optional pandas.DataFrame containing sample annotations
size_factors – 1D array of transformed library size factors for each cell in the same order as in data
noise_model –
str, noise model to use in model-based unit_test. Possible options:
’nb’: default
batch_size –
Argument controlling the memory load of the fitting procedure. For backends that allow chunking of operations, this parameter controls the size of the batch / chunk.
If backend is “tf1” or “tf2”: number of observations per batch
If backend is “numpy”: Tuple of (number of observations per chunk, number of genes per chunk)
backend –
Which linear algebra library to chose. This impact the available noise models and optimizers / training strategies. Available are:
”numpy” numpy
”tf1” tensorflow1.* >= 1.13
”tf2” tensorflow2.*
training_strategy –
{str, function, list} training strategy to use. Can be:
str: will use Estimator.TrainingStrategy[training_strategy] to train
function: Can be used to implement custom training function will be called as
training_strategy(estimator)
.list of keyword dicts containing method arguments: Will call Estimator.train() once with each dict of method arguments.
is_sig_zerovar – Whether to assign p-value of 0 to a gene which has zero variance in both groups but not the same mean. If False, the p-value is set to np.nan.
quick_scale –
Depending on the optimizer,
scale
will be fitted faster and maybe less accurate.Useful in scenarios where fitting the exact
scale
is not absolutely necessary.dtype –
Allows specifying the precision which should be used to fit data.
Should be “float32” for single precision or “float64” for double precision.
kwargs – [Debugging] Additional arguments will be passed to the _fit method.
