You can download GenomicSuperSignature from Google Cloud bucket using
GenomicSuperSignature::getModel
function. Currently available models are
built from top 20 PCs of 536 studies (containing 44,890 samples) containing
13,934 common genes from each of 536 study’s top 90% varying genes based on
their study-level standard deviation. There are two versions of this RAVmodel
annotated with different gene sets for GSEA: MSigDB C2 (C2
) and three
priors from PLIER package (PLIERpriors
). In this vignette, we are showing
the C2
annotated model.
Note that the first interactive run of this code, you will be asked to allow
R to create a cache directory. The model file will be stored there and
subsequent calls to getModel
will read from the cache.

RAVindex
is a matrix containing genes in rows and RAVs in columns. colData
slot provides the information on each RAVs, such as GSEA annotation and
studies involved in each cluster. metadata
slot stores model construction
information. trainingData
slot contains the information on individual
studies in training dataset, such as MeSH terms assigned to each study.

Replicable Axis of Variation (RAV) index is the main component of
GenomicSuperSignature. It serves as an index connecting new datasets and the
existing database. You can access it through GenomicSuperSignature::RAVindex
(equivalent of SummarizedExperiment::assay
). Rows are genes and columns are
RAVs.
Here, RAVmodel consists of 13,934 genes and 4,764 RAVs.

Silhouette width ranges from -1 to 1 for each cluster. Typically, it is
interpreted as follows:
- Values close to 1 suggest that the observation is well matched to the
assigned cluster
- Values close to 0 suggest that the observation is borderline matched
between two clusters
- Values close to -1 suggest that the observations may be assigned to the
wrong cluster
For RAVmodel, the average silhouette width of each cluster is a quality control measure and suggested as a secondary reference to choose proper RAVs, following validation score.

method.
Output is a list with the length of studies used for training. Each element of
this output list is a data frame containing the assigned MeSH terms and the
