ppcca.scores.plot {MetabolAnalyze}

Plot scores from a fitted PPCCA model.

Description

A function to plot the scores resulting from fitting a PPCCA model to metabolomic data.

Usage

ppcca.scores.plot(output, Covars, group = FALSE, covarnames=NULL)

Arguments

output

An object resulting from fitting a PPCCA model.

Covars

An N x L covariate data matrix where each row is a set of covariates.

group

Should it be relevant, a vector indicating the known treatment group membership of each observation.

covarnames

Should it be relevant, a vector string indicating the names of the covariates.

Details

This function produces a series of scatterplots each illustrating the estimated score for each observation within the reduced q dimensional space. The uncertainty associated with the score estimate is also illustrated through its 95

It is often the case that observations are known to belong to treatment groups; the treatment group membership of each observation can be illustrated on the plots produced by utilizing the ‘group’ argument.
