Checks: 7 0

Knit directory: workflowr/

This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.7.0). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.


Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.

Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.

The command set.seed(20190717) was run prior to running the code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are reproducible.

Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.

Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.

Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.

Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.

The results in this page were generated with repository version 061748a. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.

Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results (you can use wflow_publish or wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results were generated:

The Composite LIkelihood eMpirical Bayes (CLIMB) methodology was designed for Gaussian mixture models where the behavior of each component in the mixture is dictated by a latent class \(h_m\) which has the form \(h_m=(h_{[1]},\,h_{[2]},\ldots,h_{[D]})\), where \(h_{[d]} \in\{-1,\,0,\,1\}\) for \(d\in\{1,\ldots,D\}\) and \(D\) is the dimension of the data. For even moderate dimensions, this model becomes computationally intractible to fit directly because the number of candidate latent classes is \(3^D\). The CLIMB procedure circumvents this computational challenge, estimating which latent classes are supported by the data, and fitting the model in an empirical Bayesian hierarchical framework with Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC).

CLIMB occurs in 4 major steps:

  1. Pairwise fitting of the Gaussian mixture over pairs of dimensions
  2. Enumerating candidate latent classes based on the output of the pairwise fits
  3. Pruning the candidate list of latent classes based on computed prior probabilities of each class’s mixing weight
  4. Fitting the final model using MCMC

Each step of analysis CLIMB requires a bit of attention because of their memory/processor requirements. That is, Steps 1 and 3 require low memory but can be parallelized for faster performance. Meanwhile, Steps 2 and 4 cannot be parallelized, and Step 2 in particular in some cases may require high memory. To be efficient when running an analysis with CLIMB, we recommend splitting the steps up accordingly.

Each step of CLIMB has its own page in the “Four-step procedure” menu. We walk through a complete analysis of a simulated dataset throughout these 4 pages. Though the simple analysis provided here can be run on your personal laptop, in practice with real genomic datasets, one will need access to a computing cluster. We assume the user knows how to request multiple cores for parallel jobs or more memory for high-memory tasks. Navigate to any step’s page to learn more.

CLIMB’s output is rich for exploration. We demonstrate how to produce some of the results or figures in the CLIMB manuscript here.
