Problem about hicPCA #346
Comments
Hi, can you tell me what 'is different' means in detail? Maybe a plot of the region would be good to understand your issue (sth like this). Are the PCA values just flipped? Does the pattern match the checkerboard pattern of the Pearson correlation matrix (like this)? How does our PCA and the result of HiTC and cooltools correlate to known protein associated with A or B compartment (E.g. CTCF and Cohesin with A compartment and H3K9me3 with B compartment)? In general: It depends on the organism and the way the A / B compartments are computed. We use the method proposed by Lieberman-Aiden in 2009. For organisms like Drosophila we recommend to switch the obs/exp computation to 'norm'. Best, Joachim |
Hi, can you plot these in the same image and make sure they represent the same region? You can use hicPlotTADs or pyGenomeTracks for this. I am not sure if the scaling is equal and I need to have a CTCF track next to it the give useful feedback. Best, Joachim |
I would also recommend you to use |
Sometimes it happens that the first eigenvector shows not A/B compartments but the chromosome arms. Please consider the second eigenvector from the PCA for chr1 and chr2. For this reason we have set the default value of |
Combining different eigenvectors for different chromosomes might not be the good solution. The simplest would be to discard chromosome arms regions with But still, I don't get why this issue is |
Hi I wonder what is the input? normalized and corrected data? I find one arm a and the arm b. |
For calling compartment ,I tried different methods including hicPCA、HiTC、cooltools.
But I found the results of calling compartment using these methods are different . The results of HiTC and cooltools are similar, while the results of hicPCA is different in some regions of chromosomes especially chr1 and chr2 .
I don't know which should to be used for subsequent analysis . Can you give me some advices ?
hicPCA
hicPCA --matrix $h5 --o EIG1.bedGraph EIG2.bedGraph --numberOfEigenvectors 2 --geneTrack $gene
HiTC and cooltools both used default parameters.
