The hic_binning module

This is a module contains scripts for generating compact, upper-triangle and full matrices of HiC interaction data.

Concepts

These functions rely on the HiC class in conjunction with the Fend and HiCData classes.

Data can either be arranged in compact, complete, or flattened (row-major) upper-triangle arrays. Compact arrays are N x M, where N is the number of fends or bins, and M is the maximum distance between fends or bins. This is useful for working with sets of short interactions. Data can be raw, fend-corrected, distance-dependence removed, or enrichment values. Arrays are 3-dimensional with observed values in the first layer of d3, expected values in the second layer of d3. The exception to this is upper-triangle arrays, which are 2d, divinding observed and expected along the second axis.

API Documentation

hifive.hic_binning.bin_cis_array(data_array, data_mapping, binsize=10000, binbounds=None, start=None, stop=None, arraytype='full', returnmapping=False, **kwargs)

Create an array of format ‘arraytype’ and fill ‘binsize’ bins or bins defined by ‘binbounds’ with data provided in the array passed by ‘data_array’.

Parameters:
  • data_array (numpy array) – A 2d (upper) or 3d (compact) array containing data to be binned. Array format will be determined from the number of dimensions.
  • data_mapping (numpy array) – An N x 4 2d integer array containing the start and stop coordinates, and start and stop fends for each of the N bin ranges in ‘data_array’.
  • binsize (int.) – This is the coordinate width of each bin. If binbounds is not None, this value is ignored.
  • binbounds (numpy array) – An array containing start and stop coordinates for a set of user-defined bins. Any bin from ‘data_array’ not falling in a bin is ignored.
  • start (int.) – The coordinate at the beginning of the first bin of the binned data. If unspecified, ‘start’ will be the first multiple of ‘binsize’ below the first coordinate from ‘data_mapping’. If ‘binbounds’ is given, ‘start’ is ignored. Optional.
  • stop (int.) – The coordinate at the end of the last bin of the binned data. If unspecified, ‘stop’ will be the first multiple of ‘binsize’ after the last coordinate from ‘data_mapping’. If needed, ‘stop’ is adjusted upward to create a complete last bin. If ‘binbounds’ is given, ‘stop’ is ignored. Optional.
  • arraytype (str.) – This determines what shape of array data are returned in. Acceptable values are ‘compact’, ‘full’, and ‘upper’. ‘compact’ means data are arranged in a N x M x 2 array where N is the number of bins, M is the maximum number of steps between included bin pairs, and data are stored such that bin n,m contains the interaction values between n and n + m + 1. ‘full’ returns a square, symmetric array of size N x N x 2. ‘upper’ returns only the flattened upper triangle of a full array, excluding the diagonal of size (N * (N - 1) / 2) x 2.
  • returnmapping (bool.) – If ‘True’, a list containing the data array and a 2d array containing first coordinate included and excluded from each bin, and the first fend included and excluded from each bin is returned. Otherwise only the data array is returned.
Returns:

Array in format requested with ‘arraytype’ containing binned data requested with ‘datatype’ pulled from ‘data_array’ or list of binned data array and mapping array.

  • start1 (int.) – The coordinate at the beginning of the first bin for the first axis of the binned data. If unspecified, ‘start1’ will be the first multiple of ‘binsize’ below the first coordinate from ‘data_mapping1’. If ‘binbounds1’ is given, ‘start1’ is ignored. Optional.
  • stop1 (int.) – The coordinate at the end of the last bin for the first axis of the binned data. If unspecified, ‘stop1’ will be the first multiple of ‘binsize’ after the last coordinate from ‘data_mapping1’. If needed, ‘stop1’ is adjusted upward to create a complete last bin. If ‘binbounds1’ is given, ‘stop1’ is ignored. Optional.
