Hi, we haven't noticed such behavior in our tests. In our tests with PCA the results were consistent with the original samples. I would suggest looking at the genotypes and correlations between markers of the original and simulated samples. If you find some specific deviation in the correlations, can you update us with some example results and input files if possible?
Hi, Here's the command lines I used for each of the population.
library(sim1000G)
vcf_file = "affy_harmonized_maf005_pruned.phased.chr$chr.$pop.recode.vcf.gz"
vcf = readVCF(vcf_file, maxNumberOfVariants = $sites ,min_maf = NA)
readGeneticMapFromFile(filelocation="genetic_map_GRCh37_chr$chr.txt.gz")
startSimulation(vcf, totalNumberOfIndividuals = 1000)
ids = generateUnrelatedIndividuals(200)
genotype = retrieveGenotypes(ids)
write.table(genotype,file="chr$chr.simulate.200.$pop.012.txt")
Do you see something obvious that could have done something wrong here? Also, just note that I put the entire chromosomes in each simulation and I'm specifying the number of SNPs explicitely using the maxNumberOfVariants option. I'm simulating 1000 samples, and generate 200 unrelated samples from those ones. I'll put together an example if you don't see anything wrong here. Thanks a lot! JC
Hello @adimitromanolakis, Here's an example. I did a PCA on the data and I've put the result in there too.
affy_harmonized_maf005_pruned.phased.chr10.ACB.recode.vcf.gz
chr10.simulate.200.ACB.012.txt.gz
Hope this help reviewing my issue.
Best, JC
Hello @adimitromanolakis, Just checking if you had by chance looked at my issue. Thanks a lot for your help.
JC
Hello @adimitromanolakis , any news regarding this issue? Thanks a lot!

Hi JC, no we haven't seen this issue. Are you using the same set of variants to compute the PCA between the real and simulated data? Because you used the internal filtering of sim1000G, the set of variants will be different, compared to the original vcf file.

Here is a code that used the filtered vcf to compute PCA, it seems fine for this example:
setwd("/tmp")
library(sim1000G)
vcf_file = "affy_harmonized_maf005_pruned.phased.chr10.ACB.recode.vcf.gz"
vcf = readVCF(vcf_file, maxNumberOfVariants = 1000 ,min_maf = NA)
readGeneticMapFromFile(downloadGeneticMap(10))
startSimulation(vcf, totalNumberOfIndividuals = 1000)
SIM$reset()
ids = generateUnrelatedIndividuals(200)
genotype = retrieveGenotypes(ids)
str(genotype)
p1 <- prcomp((genotype[,1:500]) )
str(p1)
# Retrieve filtered genotypes
og = t(vcf$gt1+vcf$gt2)
str(og)
p2 <- prcomp((og[,1:500]) )
plot(p2$x[,1],p2$x[, 2], xlim=c(-10,10),ylim=c(-10,10))
points(p1$x[,1],p1$x[, 2],pch=20,col="blue")
Hello @adimitromanolakis ,
Thanks a lot! I'll give it a look. It seems like you don't extract the genotypes the same way I did. What do you think might cause the difference? You are creating an additive genotype I guess?
I was doing the PCA using some methods made up for genotyping datasets. I will try using your way!
Thanks!
JC
Hello @adimitromanolakis ,
We previously worked with your tool during the last year in order to do data augmentation. However, we found out that the simulated samples looks a lot more alike to each other when compared to real samples. We could saw this using a PCA method for instance. Have you ever saw that before? Could this be something we do wrong or you would expect this behaviour?
Thanks a lot for your help! Have a nice day!
