As suggested by \citep{rodriguez2016improving} both singular enrichment analysis (SEA) and gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) must be performed over the same dataset in order to gain as much biological insight as possible. This strategy is known as Integrative Functional Analysis (IFA) and integrates into the same analysis with enhanced versions of the dEnricher \citep{dEnricher} and mGSZ \citep{mGSZ} methods. \par At present, there are several freely available datasets which provide data over the same disease, characteristic of interest (e.g. survival), or subjects studied over several different platforms. The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) among other projects makes possible the study and comparison in a massive way of these datasets, not only among them but, also against our own population of interest. This unprecedented opportunity allows researchers to search for common functional patterns between these studies, or, more interestingly, particular patterns of our experiment in question. However, this type of approach has not been implemented in any existing tool yet, leaving aside valuable biological information that might assist research hypotheses. \par Here, we present a Massive and Integrative Gene Set Analysis tool called \pkg{MIGSA}. It allows to evaluate and compare, massively and transparently, a large collection of datasets coming from diverse sources, maintaining the gene set enrichment ideas of IFA and minimizing parameter settings. In addition, it includes a gene ranking score alternative for RNAseq data by integrating the \textit{Voom+Limma} methodological approach. It provides an enhanced version of mGSZ (\texttt{MIGSAmGSZ}) faster than the default implementation, in order to speed up even more its execution, \pkg{MIGSA} can be run using multicore architectures. In this sense it can be applied over a large collection of datasets on many gene sets in a fast way. Finally, \pkg{MIGSA} provides several user-friendly methods to easily explore and visualize results at gene set, dataset and individual gene level to aid researchers in their biological hypothesis understanding. \section{Preliminaries} \subsection{Citing MIGSA} \pkg{MIGSA} implements a body of methodological research by the authors and co-workers.

See the R project at http://www.r-project.org. To install the latest version of \pkg{MIGSA}, you will need to be using the latest version of R. \\ \pkg{MIGSA} is part of the Bioconductor project at http://www.bioconductor.org. (Prior to R 3.4). \\To get \pkg{MIGSA} package you can type in an R session: <>= ## try http:// if https:// URLs are not supported source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R"); biocLite("MIGSA"); @ \subsection{Class definitions} \pkg{MIGSA} basically consists of six classes and various functions that interact with them. The following is a simplified class diagram of MIGSA. \fbox{ \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/MIGSApublicSimple.eps} } \par Following we present a detailed diagram of each class, including the functions that interact in each case. It should be noted that these diagrams represent a general overview of MIGSA, for a detailed explanation of each class and function please refer to the user manual. \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/geneSetsFunc.eps} \par \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/SEAparams.eps} \par \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/GSEAparams.eps} \par \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/FitOptions.eps} \par \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/IGSAinput.eps} \par \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/MIGSAfunc.eps} \par \includegraphics[width=\textwidth]{ClassDiagrams/MIGSAres.eps} \section{Gene sets} \pkg{MIGSA} allows to perform the functional analysis of any type of gene sets provided by the user. Such gene sets should be present as GeneSetCollection objects from the \pkg{GSEABase} R library, in this section we will give a brief introduction on how to construct such an object from our own gene sets. In addition, the tools provided by \pkg{MIGSA} to automatically load various collections of known gene sets will be presented. \subsection{Sample GeneSetCollection creation} Here we present a simple way to create a GeneSetCollection object from own gene sets, for more detailed information please refer to the \pkg{GSEABase} documentation. \\For this example we are going to manually create the GeneSetCollection object for the gene sets hsa00232, hsa00130 and hsa00785 from KEGG. \\First, we will have to create each gene set separately, and then the GeneSetCollection object. <<>>= library(GSEABase); gs1 <- GeneSet(c("10", "1544", "1548", "1549", "1553", "7498", "9"), setName="hsa00232", setIdentifier="Caffeine metabolism"); gs1; gs2 <- GeneSet(c("10229", "27235", "3242", "51004", "51805", "6898", "84274"), setName="hsa00130", setIdentifier="Ubiquinone and other terpenoid-quinone biosynthesis"); gs3 <- GeneSet(c("11019", "387787", "51601"), setName="hsa00785", setIdentifier="Lipoic acid metabolism"); ## And now construct the GeneSetCollection object. gsetsColl <- GeneSetCollection(list(gs1, gs2, gs3)); gsetsColl; @ \subsection{MIGSA gene sets loading} As mentioned above, \pkg{MIGSA} provides functions for automatically loading known collections of gene sets. These functions are \texttt{loadGo} and \texttt{downloadEnrichrGeneSets}, the first constructs the GeneSetCollection object using the \pkg{org.Hs.eg.db} R package. Meanwhile, \texttt{downloadEnrichrGeneSets} constructs the object by downloading the gene sets from the Enrichr database (http://amp.pharm.mssm.edu/Enrichr/\#stats). Enrichr gene set names can be listed with the \texttt{enrichrGeneSets} function. <>= ## Not run: ## Load cellular component gene sets (another possibility would be "MF" or "BP") ccGsets <- loadGo("CC"); # It is a GeneSetCollection object ## Load KEGG and Reactome gene sets keggReact <- downloadEnrichrGeneSets(c("KEGG_2015", "Reactome_2015")); ## It is a list object containing two GeneSetCollection objects ## End(Not run) @ \section{MIGSAmGSZ} \subsection{mGSZ speedup} As stated below, \pkg{MIGSA} provides the \texttt{MIGSAmGSZ} function, which implements \textit{mGSZ} but running much faster. In order to test \texttt{MIGSAmGSZ}'s correctness and speed up over \textit{mGSZ}, it was evaluated using the TCGA's microarray breast cancer dataset. Basal vs. Luminal A contrast was tested (16,207 genes x 237 subjects) over the Gene Ontology and KEGG gene sets (20,425 gene sets). \\This analysis was carried out using an Intel(R) Xeon(R) E5-2620 v3 @ 2.40GHz (24 cores), 128 GB RAM. Different number of cores were used to analyze the speed up. \\Let's test it! \\Note that we are using MulticoreParam as I am testing under Linux. <>= library(BiocParallel); library(mGSZ); library(MIGSA); library(MIGSAdata); data(tcgaMAdata); subtypes <- tcgaMAdata$subtypes; geneExpr <- tcgaMAdata$geneExpr; ## MA data: filter genes with less than 30% of genes read per condition dim(geneExpr); geneExpr <- geneExpr[ rowSums(is.na(geneExpr[, subtypes == "Basal" ])) < .3*sum(subtypes == "Basal") & rowSums(is.na(geneExpr[, subtypes == "LumA" ])) < .3*sum(subtypes == "LumA") , ]; dim(geneExpr); @ <>= ## Not run: ## Download GO and KEGG gene sets using MIGSA gSets <- list( KEGG=downloadEnrichrGeneSets("KEGG_2015")[[1]], BP=loadGo("BP"), CC=loadGo("CC"), MF=loadGo("MF")); gSetsList <- do.call(c, lapply(gSets, MIGSA:::asList)); rm(gSets); nCores <- c(1,2,4,8,10,12,14); allRes <- lapply(nCores, function(actCores) { # setting in how many cores to run bp_param <- MulticoreParam(workers=actCores, threshold="DEBUG", progressbar=TRUE); set.seed(8818); newtimeSpent <- Sys.time(); MIGSAmGSZres <- MIGSAmGSZ(geneExpr, gSetsList, subtypes, bp.param=bp_param); newtimeSpent <- Sys.time()-newtimeSpent; res <- list(timeSpent=newtimeSpent, res=MIGSAmGSZres); return(res); }) set.seed(8818); timeSpent <- Sys.time(); mGSZres <- mGSZ(geneExpr, gSetsList, subtypes); timeSpent <- Sys.time()-timeSpent; mGSZres <- mGSZres$mGSZ; ## this tests that the returned values are equal, must give all TRUE lapply(allRes, function(actRes) { actRes <- actRes$res; actRes <- actRes[,1:4]; mergedRes <- merge(mGSZres, actRes, by="gene.sets", suffixes=c("mGSZ", "MIGSAmGSZ")); all(unlist(lapply(2:4, function(x) { all.equal(mergedRes[,x], mergedRes[,x+3]) }))); }) ## End(Not run) @ <>= ## As last chunk of code was not executed, we load that data: library(MIGSAdata); data(mGSZspeedup); nCores <- mGSZspeedup$nCores; allRes <- mGSZspeedup$allRes; timeSpent <- mGSZspeedup$timeSpent; ## End(Loading data) newtimeSpent <- lapply(allRes, function(actRes) { actRes$timeSpent; }) names(newtimeSpent) <- nCores; speeduptable <- c(timeSpent, unlist(newtimeSpent)); names(speeduptable) <- c(1, nCores); ## Let's put all times in the same unit in order to measure speedup newtimeSpent <- lapply(newtimeSpent, function(acttime) { units(acttime) <- "secs"; return(acttime); }); units(timeSpent) <- "secs"; speedup <- do.call(c, lapply(newtimeSpent, function(acttime) as.numeric(timeSpent)/as.numeric(acttime))); speeduptable <- rbind(speeduptable, c(1, speedup)); ## calculate efficiency speeduptable <- rbind(speeduptable, speeduptable[2,] / as.numeric(colnames(speeduptable))); rownames(speeduptable) <- c("Runtime", "Speedup", "Efficiency"); round(speeduptable, 2); @ As it can be seen in Table \ref{speedUpTable}, no matter the number of cores in which \texttt{MIGSAmGSZ} was tested, it outperformed \textit{mGSZ}. Running in one core, it has shown a speedup of 1.6X, reaching for a top of 10.8X speedup with ten cores, giving the same results in 14 minutes in contrast to \textit{mGSZ}'s 2.46 hours execution. \begin{table}[!htpb] \caption{MIGSAmGSZ speedup} \centering \begin{tabular}{lcccccccc} \hline & mGSZ & \multicolumn{7}{c}{MIGSAmGSZ} \\ \#cores & 1 & 1 & 2 & 4 & 8 & 10 & 12 & 14 \\ Runtime & 2.46h & 1.55h & 46.5m & 24.98m & 15.63m & 13.67m & 14.79m & 28.43m \\ Speedup & 1 & 1.58 & 3.18 & 5.91 & 9.45 & 10.81 & 9.98 & 5.19 \\ Efficiency & 1 & 1.58 & 1.59 & 1.48 & 1.18 & 1.08 & 0.83 & 0.37 \\ \hline \end{tabular} \label{speedUpTable} \end{table} \subsection{MIGSAmGSZ simple example} Following, we show how to simply execute one \texttt{MIGSAmGSZ} analysis. \\ In this example we will generate an expression matrix with 200 genes (ten differentially expressed) and eight subjects (four of condition ``C1'' and four of ``C2''), and 50 gene sets of ten genes each one. <>= library(MIGSA); ## Let's create our gene expression matrix with 200 genes and 8 subjects nSamples <- 8; # 8 subjects nGenes <- 200; # 200 genes geneNames <- paste("g", 1:nGenes, sep = ""); # with names g1 ... g200 ## Create random gene expression data matrix. set.seed(8818); exprMatrix <- matrix(rnorm(nGenes*nSamples),ncol=nSamples); ## It must have rownames, as they will be treated as the gene names!

Only those subjects classified as Basal-Like or Luminal A were included. \\ Enrichment was tested over 20,245 Gene Ontology gene sets (14,291 biological processes, 1,692 cellular components and 4,263 molecular functions), and 179 from KEGG. \subsection{Used datasets} A total of eight datasets were tested, six of them were loaded by means of the \pkg{pbcmc} R library, i.e., Mainz, Nki, Transbig, Unt, Upp and Vdx); and two were downloaded from the TCGA repository, i.e., microarray and RNAseq data matrices. For each dataset, genes reliably detected in less than 30\% of the samples per condition were removed from the analysis. In addition, in RNAseq data, genes with a mean less than 15 counts per condition were also removed. Detailed datasets information can be seen in Table \ref{datasetsTable}. \begin{table}[!htpb] \caption{Datasets details} \centering \begin{tabular}{lcccc} \hline Dataset & Platform & \multicolumn{2}{c}{Subjects} & Genes \\ & & Basal & Luminal A & \\ \hline Mainz & Microarray & 18 & 117 & 13,091 \\ Nki & Microarray & 66 & 100 & 12,975 \\ TCGA & Microarray & 95 & 142 & 16,207 \\ TCGA & RNAseq & 95 & 142 & 16,741 \\ Transbig & Microarray & 37 & 89 & 13,091 \\ Unt & Microarray & 22 & 42 & 18,528 \\ Upp & Microarray & 19 & 150 & 18,528 \\ Vdx & Microarray & 80 & 134 & 13,091 \\ \hline Total & - & 432 & 916 & - \\ \hline \end{tabular} \label{datasetsTable} \end{table} \subsection{MIGSA on TCGA data} \label{migsatcga} Let's run MIGSA over the TCGA RNAseq and microarray datasets.
