Spillover matrix in FlowCore doesn't match Compensation Matrix from FlowJo

Dear all,

I used the spillover() function in flowCore to generate a spillover matrix with a bunch of single-stained .fcs and an unstained sample.

Strangely, I compared this spillover matrix from R with that of FlowJo Compensation Matrix and found that they were dissimilar.

Perhaps, my approach was wrong but I have attached the codes for peer-review.

In addition, Kindly find below the Comp Matrix from FlowJo.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

FlowJo Comp Matrix

 

 

Best,

Sam

Hi Samuel.

I don't have an answer. I already did some test using OMIP018 and this function was OK with the parameters you used. Look at my tests at http://rpubs.com/SamGG/spillover-omip-018 and issue IMHO concerning the row normalization https://github.com/RGLab/flowCore/issues/94

I encouraged you to read the test code provided by Mike at Error in dimnames(x) <- dn : length of 'dimnames' [1] not equal to array extent and I would like to thanks Miha for interesting discussion also.

In case you want to go into the code, I extracted the useful part of the code from the spillover method. You will find original comments, plus mine, plus some points to check (comment identified by #-#). You can run again your code and specifying the unstained with its numeric index instead of its long name.

I hope this will help you.

x = spilloverComp
unstained = "Sample 2_Unstained.fcs"
fsc = "FSC-A",
ssc = "SSC-A"
method = "median"
stain_match = "ordered"

allcols <- colnames(x)
cols <- allcols
## Ignore these guys if they somehow got into cols.
cols <- cols[!(cols %in% c(fsc, ssc))]

## There has got to be a better way of doing this...
if (!is.numeric(unstained)) {
    unstained <- match(unstained, sampleNames(x))
    if is.na(unstained)) {
        stop("Baseline(unstained sample) not found in this set.", call. = FALSE)
    }
}
#=# Check this is the true index of the unstained sample
#=# Alternatively, you could put the true index, ie length(x) in your case

# Here, we match the stain channels with the compensation controls
# if the user has specified it. Otherwise, we must "guess" below
# based on the largest statistic for the compensation control
# (i.e., the row).
# If "ordered," we assume the ordering of the channels in the
# flowSet object is the same as the ordering of the
# compensation-control samples.
channel_order <- seq_along(sampleNames(x))[-unstained]
#-# This is useless in ordered case

# Real computation starts here
# Firstly compute the median per column for each FCS
inten <- fsApply(x, each_col, method)[, cols]
#-# Print the inten matrix, and check the name of the columns
#-# cbind(sampleNames(x), c(colnames(inten), "-"))

# background correction
# Secondly remove the unstained medians from the single stained FCS
# per column, avoiding negative values
inten <- pmax(sweep(inten[-unstained, ], 2, inten[unstained, ]), 0)
#-# Print the inten matrix

# normalize by max of each row
# Thirdly divide by maximum of each row, which might lead to
# a diagonal different from 1
inten <- sweep(inten, 1, apply(inten, 1, max), "/")
#-# Print the inten matrix

# Updates the "rownames" of the intensity matrix. If the channel
# order was not set above, then a guess is made based on the
# largest statistic for the compensation control (i.e., the row).
rownames(inten) <- colnames(inten)
inten
#-# Check against FlowJo, but FJ channels are not in the order of the flowset
#-# round(inten*100, 2)

Kindly find below the Comp Matrix from FlowJo.

Any help will be highly appreciated.

Many Thanks, Sam!

I will look into the codes and get back to the community on that.

 

Best

Samuel
