Turns out the blue regions are deletions as it looks like the states I'm seeing (2 and 4) correspond to the HMM states .5 and 1.5 based on: https://github.com/broadinstitute/infercnv/blob/6936fe06508994e4a3ea4e4d8ef3216ccc63e6a9/R/inferCNV_HMM.R#L1106-L1121
The states in HMM_CNV_predictions.HMMi6.hmm_mode-samples.Pnorm_0.5.pred_cnv_regions.dat
seem to differ from the example file in the wiki section titled "CNV region prediction reports". Not sure if the wiki is old and needs to be updated or there is a special flag to ensure the output file has HMM states rather than whole numbers
Hi @tjbencomo ,
Yes the HMM states are as you described.
The page you referred to was indeed outdated as only the "infercnv i6 HMM type" had been updated. The "infercnv HMM based CNV prediction methods" is now also up to date. Thank you for reporting this!
Regards, Christophe.
I recently ran inferCNV v1.7.1 on 10x data for a single patient, grouping tumor cells by their subpopulations. When I examine the final HMM heatmap image (
infercnv.19_HMM_predHMMi6.hmm_mode-samples.Pnorm_0.5.repr_intensities.png
), there are a few distinct blue CNVs in the TSK subpopulation in chromosomes 3, 9, and 11.I assumed these CNVs would be deletions due to their blue color, but looking at
HMM_CNV_predictions.HMMi6.hmm_mode-samples.Pnorm_0.5.pred_cnv_regions.dat
indicates that they are amplifications (state = 2). Should all of these CNVs be red as they are all amplified, or can amplifications be both red and blue?
