DATA ANALYSIS Module Code: CA660 Lecture Block 7
Examples in Genomics and Trait Models • Genetic traits may be controlled by No.genes-usually unknown Taking “genetic effect” as one genotypic term, a simple model for where yij is the trait value for genotype i in replication j, is themean, Gi the genetic effect for genotype i and ij the errors. • If assume Normality (and want Random effects) + assume zero covariance between genetic effects and error Note: If same genotype replicated b times in an experiment, with phenotypic means used, error variance averaged over b.
Example - Trait Models contd. • What about Environment and GE interactions? Extension to Simple Model. ANOVA Table: Randomized Blocks within environment and within sets/blocks in environment = b = replications. Focus - on genotype effect Source dof Expected MSQ Environment e-1 know there are differences Blocks(b-1)e again – know there are differences Genotypes g-1 GE (g-1)(e-1) Error (b-1)(g-1)e Note: individuals blocked within each of multiple environments, so environmental effect intrinsic to error. Model form is standard, but only meaningful comparisons are within environment, hence form of random error = population variance = ; so random effects of interest from additional variances & ratios Genotypic effects measured within blocks
Example contd. • HERITABILITY = Ratio genotypic to phenotypic variance • Depending on relationship among genotypes, interpretation of genotypic variance differs. May contain additive, dominance, other interactions, variances (Above = heritability in broad terms). • For some experimental or mating schemes, an additive genetic variance may be calculated. Narrow/specific sense heritabilitythen • Again, if phenotypic means used, obtain a mean-based heritability for b replications.
Extended Example- Two related traits Have where 1 and 2 denote traits, i the gene and j an individual in population. Then ‘y’ is the trait value, overall mean, G genetic effect, = random error. To quantify relationship between the two traits, the variance- covariance matrices for phenotypic, pgenetic gand environmental effects e So correlations between traits in terms of phenotypic, genetic and environmental effects:
MAXIMUM LIKELIHOOD ESTIMATION • Recallgeneral points: Estimation, definition of Likelihood function for a vector of parameters and set of values x. Find most likely value of = maximise the Likelihood fn. Also defined Log-likelihood (Support fn. S()) and its derivative, the Score, together with Information content per observation, which for single parameter likelihood is given by • Why MLE? (Need to know underlying distribution). Properties: Consistency; sufficiency; asymptotic efficiency (linked to variance); unique maximum; invariance and, hence most convenient parameterisation; usually MVUE; amenable to conventional optimisation methods.
VARIANCE, BIAS & CONFIDENCE • Variance of an Estimator - usual form or for k independent estimates • For a large sample, variance of MLE can be approximated by can also estimate empirically, using re-sampling* techniques. • Variance of a linear function (of several estimates) – (common need in genomics analysis), e.g. heritability. • Recall Biasof the Estimator then the Mean Square Error is defined to be: expands to so we have the basis for C.I. and tests of hypothesis.
COMMONLY-USED METHODS of obtaining MLE • Analytical - solvingor when simple solutions exist • Grid search or likelihood profile approach • Newton-Raphson iteration methods • EM (expectation and maximisation) algorithm N.B. Log.-likelihood, because max. same value as Likelihood Easier to compute Close relationship between statistical properties of MLE and Log-likelihood
METHODS in brief Analytical : - recall Binomial example earlier • Example : For Normal, MLE’s of mean and variance, (taking derivatives w.r.t mean and variance separately), and equivalent to sample mean and actual variance (i.e. /N), -unbiased if mean known, biased if not. • Invariance : One-to-one relationships preserved • Used: whenMLE has a simple solution
Methods for MLE’s contd. Grid Search – Computational Plot likelihood or log-likelihood vs parameter. Various features • Relative Likelihood=Likelihood/Max. Likelihood (ML set =1). Peak of R.L. can be visually identified /sought algorithmically. e.g. Plot likelihood and parameter space range - gives 2 peaks, symmetrical around likelihood profile for the well-known mixed linkage phase problem in linkage analysis. If e.g. constrain MLE = R.F. between genes (possible mixed linkage phase).
contd. • Graphic/numerical Implementation - initial estimate of , direction ofsearch determined by evaluating likelihood at both sides of . Search takes direction giving increase. Initial search increments large, e.g. 0.1, then when likelihood change starts to decrease or become negative, stop and refine increment. • Multiple peaks– can miss global maximum, computationally intensive • Multiple Parameters - grid search. Interpretation of Likelihood profiles can be difficult.
Example • Recall Exs 2, Q. 8. Data used to show a linkage relationship between marker and a “rust-resistant”gene. Escapes = individuals who are susceptible, but show no disease (rust) phenotype under experimental conditions. So define as proportion escapes and R.F. respectively. is penetrance for disease trait, i.e. P{ that individual with susceptible genotype has disease phenotype}. Purpose of expt.-typically to estimate R.F. between marker and gene. • Use: Support function = Log-Likelihood
Example contd. • Setting 1st derivatives (Scores) w.r.t = 0. Expected value of Score (w.r.t. is zero, (see analogies in classical sampling/hypothesis testing). Similarly for . Here, however, No simple analytical solution, so can not solve directly for either. • Using grid search, likelihood reaches maximum at • In general, this type of experiment tests H0: Independence between marker and gene and H0: no escapes Uses LikelihoodRatioTest statistics. (MLE 2 equivalent) • N.B: Moment estimates solve slightly different problem, because no info. on expected frequencies, - (not same as MLE)
MLE Estimation Methods contd. Newton-Raphson Iteration Have Score () = 0 from previously.N-R consists of replacing Score by linear terms of its Taylor expansion, so if ´´ a solution, ´=1st guess Repeat with ´´replacing´ Each iteration - fits a parabolato Likelihood Fn. • Problems - Multiple peaks, zero Information, extreme estimates • Multiple parameters – need matrix notation, where S matrix e.g. has elements = derivatives of S(, ) w.r.t. and respectively. Similarly, Information matrix has terms of form Estimates are L.F. 2nd 1st Variance of Log-L i.e.S()
Methods contd. Expectation-Maximisation Algorithm - Iterative. Incompletedata (Much genomic data fits this situation e.g.linkage analysis with marker genotypes of F2 progeny. Usually 9 categories observed for 2-locus, 2-allele model, but 16 = complete info., while 14 give info. on linkage. Some hidden, but if linkage parameter known, expected frequencies can be predicted – as you know - and the complete data restored using expectation). • Steps: (1)Expectationestimates statistics of complete data, given observed incomplete data. • -(2) Maximisation uses estimated complete data to give MLE. • Iterate till converges (no further change)
E-M contd. Implementation • Initial guess, ´, chosen (e.g. =0.25 say = R.F.). • Taking this as “true”, complete data is estimated, by distributional statements e.g. P(individual is recombinant, given observed genotype) for R.F. estimation. • MLE estimate ´´ computed. • This, for R.F. sum of recombinants/N. • Thus MLE, for fi observed count, Convergence ´´ = ´ or
LIKELIHOOD : C.I. and H.T. • Likelihood Ratio Test – c.f. with 2. • Principal Advantage of Gis Power, as unknown parameters involved in hypothesis test. Have : Likelihood of taking a value Awhich maximises it, i.e. its MLE and likelihood under H0 : N , (e.g.N = 0.5) • Form of L.R. Test Statistic or, conventionally - choose; easier to interpret. • Distribution of G~ approx. 2 (d.o.f. = difference in dimension of parameter spaces for L(A), L(N) ) • Goodness of Fit:notation as for 2 , G ~ 2n-1 : • Independence:notation again as for2
Power-Example extended • Under H0 : • At level of significance =0.05, suppose true = 1 = 0.2, so if n=25 (e.g. in genomics might apply where R.F. =0.2 between two genes (as opposed to 0.5). Natural logs. used, though either possible in practice. Hence, generic form “Log” rather than Ln here. Assume Ln throughout for genetic/genomic examples unless otherwise indicated) • Rejection region at 0.05 level is • If sketch curves, P{LRTS falls in the acceptance region} = 0.13, = Prob.of a false negative when actual value of= 0.2 • If sample size increased, e.g. n=50, E{G} = 19 and easy to show that P{False negative} = 0.01 • Generally: Power for these tests given by
Likelihood C. I.’s - method • Example: Consider the following Likelihood function is the unknown parameter ; a, b observed counts • For 4 data sets observed, A: (a,b) = (8,2), B: (a,b)=(16,4) C: (a,b)=(80, 20) D: (a,b) = (400, 100) • Likelihood estimates can be plotted vs possible parameter values, with MLE = peak value. e.g. MLE = 0.2, Lmax=0.0067 for A, and Lmax=0.0045 for B etc. Set A: Log Lmax- Log L=Log(0.0067) - Log(0.00091)= 2gives 95% C.I. so =(0.035,0.496) corresponding to L=0.00091, 95% C.I. for A. Similarly, manipulating this expression, Likelihood value corresponding to 95% confidence interval given as L = 7.389Lmax Note: Usually plot Log-likelihood vs parameter, rather than Likelihood. As sample size increases, C.I. narrower and symmetric
Multiple Populations: Extensions to G -Example • Recall Mendel’s data - earlier and Extensions to 2 for same In brief Round Wrinkled Plant O E O E G dof p-value 1 45 42.75 12 14.25 0.49 1 0.49 2 0.09 1 0.77 3 0.10 1 0.75 4 1.301 0.26 5 0.01 1 0.93 6 0.71 1 0.40 7 0.79 1 0.38 8 0.63 1 0.43 9 1.06 1 0.30 10 0.17 1 0.68 Total 336 101 5.34 10 Pooled 336 327.75 101 109.25 0.85 1 0.36 Heterogeneity 4.50 9 0.88
Multiple Populations - summary • Parallels • Partitionstherefore and Gheterogeneity = Gtotal - GPooled (n=no. classes, p = no.populations) Example: Recall Backcross (AaBb x aabb)- Goodness of fit (2- locus model). For each of 4 crosses, a Total GoF statistic can be calculated according to expected segregation ratio 1:1:1:1 – (assumes no segregation distortion for both loci and no linkage between loci). For each locus GoF calculated using marginal counts, assuming each genotype segregates 1:1. Difference between Total and 2 individual locus GoF statistics is L-LRTS (or chi-squared statistic) contributed by association/linkage between 2 loci.
Example: Marker Screening Screening for Polymorphism - (different detectable alleles) – look at stages involved. Genomic map –based on genome variation at locations (from molecular assay or traditional trait observations). (1) Screening polymorphic genetic markers is Exptal step 1 - usually assay a large number of possible genetic markers in small progeny set = random sample of mapping population. If a marker does not show polymorphism for set of progeny, then marker non-informative ; will not be used for data analysis).
Example contd. (2) Progeny size for screening – based on power, convenience etc., e.g. False positive = monomorphic marker determined to be polymorphic. Rare since m-m cannot produce segregating genotypes if these determined accurately. False negativeshigh particularly for small sample. e.g. for markers segregating 1:1 – (i)Backcross, recombinant inbred lines, doubled haploid lines, or (ii)F2 with codominant markers, So, e.g. (i) P{sampling all individuals with same genotype) = 2(0.5)n (ii) P{false negative for single marker, n=5} = 2(0.25)5+0.55=0.0332 Hence Power curves as before.
Example contd. S.R 1:1 vs 3:1- use LRTS • Detection of departurefromS.R.of 1:1 n = sample size, O1, O2observed counts of 2 genotypic classes. • For true S.R. 3:1, O1 genotypic frequency ofdominantgenotype, T.S. parametric value is approx.
Example contd. • To reject a S.R. of 1:1 at 0.05 significance level, a LogLRTS of at least 3.84 (critical value for rejection) is required. • Statistical Power • Forn=15 then, power is • For a power of 90%, n 40 needed • If problem expressed other way. i.e. calculating Expected LRTS (for rejecting a 3:1 S.R. when true value is S.R. 1:1), this is 0.2877n and n 35 needed.
Maximum Likelihood Benefits • Good Confidence Intervals Coverage probability realised and interval biologically meaningful • MLE Good estimator of a CI MSE consistent Absence of Bias - does not “stand-alone” – minimum variance important Asymptotically Normal Precise – large sample Biological inference valid Biological range realistic
