scanpy.external.tl.phenograph(data, *, k=30, directed=False, prune=False, min_cluster_size=10, jaccard=True, primary_metric='euclidean', n_jobs=- 1, q_tol=0.001, louvain_time_limit=2000, nn_method='kdtree')

PhenoGraph clustering [Levine15].

Parameters

data : ndarray, spmatrixUnion[ndarray, spmatrix]

Array of data to cluster or sparse matrix of k-nearest neighbor graph. If ndarray, n-by-d array of n cells in d dimensions, if sparse matrix, n-by-n adjacency matrix.

k : intint (default: 30)

Number of nearest neighbors to use in first step of graph construction.

directed : boolbool (default: False)

Whether to use a symmetric (default) or asymmetric (“directed”) graph. The graph construction process produces a directed graph, which is symmetrized by one of two methods (see below).

prune : boolbool (default: False)

Whether to symmetrize by taking the average (prune=False) or product (prune=True) between the graph and its transpose.

min_cluster_size : intint (default: 10)

Cells that end up in a cluster smaller than min_cluster_size are considered outliers and are assigned to -1 in the cluster labels.

jaccard : boolbool (default: True)

If True, use Jaccard metric between k-neighborhoods to build graph. If False, use a Gaussian kernel.

primary_metric : {‘cityblock’, ‘cosine’, ‘euclidean’, ‘l1’, ‘l2’, ‘manhattan’}, {‘braycurtis’, ‘canberra’, ‘chebyshev’, ‘correlation’, ‘dice’, ‘hamming’, ‘jaccard’, ‘kulsinski’, ‘mahalanobis’, ‘minkowski’, ‘rogerstanimoto’, ‘russellrao’, ‘seuclidean’, ‘sokalmichener’, ‘sokalsneath’, ‘sqeuclidean’, ‘yule’}Union[Literal[‘cityblock’, ‘cosine’, ‘euclidean’, ‘l1’, ‘l2’, ‘manhattan’], Literal[‘braycurtis’, ‘canberra’, ‘chebyshev’, ‘correlation’, ‘dice’, ‘hamming’, ‘jaccard’, ‘kulsinski’, ‘mahalanobis’, ‘minkowski’, ‘rogerstanimoto’, ‘russellrao’, ‘seuclidean’, ‘sokalmichener’, ‘sokalsneath’, ‘sqeuclidean’, ‘yule’]] (default: 'euclidean')

Distance metric to define nearest neighbors. Note that performance will be slower for correlation and cosine.

n_jobs : intint (default: -1)

Nearest Neighbors and Jaccard coefficients will be computed in parallel using n_jobs. If n_jobs=-1, it is determined automatically.

q_tol : floatfloat (default: 0.001)

Tolerance (i.e., precision) for monitoring modularity optimization.

louvain_time_limit : intint (default: 2000)

Maximum number of seconds to run modularity optimization. If exceeded the best result so far is returned.

nn_method : {‘kdtree’, ‘brute’}Literal[‘kdtree’, ‘brute’] (default: 'kdtree')

Whether to use brute force or kdtree for nearest neighbor search. For very large high-dimensional data sets, brute force (with parallel computation) performs faster than kdtree.

Return type

Tuple[ndarray, spmatrix, float]Tuple[ndarray, spmatrix, float]

Returns

communitiesndarrayndarray

Integer array of community assignments for each row in data.

graphspmatrixspmatrix

The graph that was used for clustering.

Qfloatfloat

The modularity score for communities on graph.

Example

>>> from anndata import AnnData
>>> import scanpy as sc
>>> import scanpy.external as sce
>>> import numpy as np
>>> import pandas as pd

Assume adata is your annotated data which has the normalized data.

Then do PCA:

>>> sc.tl.pca(adata, n_comps = 100)

Compute phenograph clusters:

>>> result = sce.tl.phenograph(adata.obsm['X_pca'], k = 30)

Embed the phenograph result into adata as a categorical variable (this helps in plotting):

>>> adata.obs['pheno'] = pd.Categorical(result[0])

Check by typing “adata” and you should see under obs a key called ‘pheno’.

Now to show phenograph on tSNE (for example):

Compute tSNE:

>>> sc.tl.tsne(adata, random_state = 7)

Plot phenograph clusters on tSNE:

>>> sc.pl.tsne(adata, color = ['pheno'], s = 100, palette = sc.pl.palettes.vega_20_scanpy, legend_fontsize = 10)

Cluster and cluster centroids for input Numpy ndarray

>>> df = np.random.rand(1000,40)
>>> df.shape
(1000, 40)
>>> result = sce.tl.phenograph(df, k=50)

New results can be pushed into adata object:

>>> dframe = pd.DataFrame(data=df, columns=range(df.shape[1]),index=range(df.shape[0]) )
>>> adata = AnnData( X=dframe, obs=dframe, var=dframe)
>>> adata.obs['pheno'] = pd.Categorical(result[0])
