High dimensionality PCA-based cluster analysis using SNOB

Read first this page to get up to speed. Then come back.

Welcome back. SNOB is a program written by Chris Wallace and encoding for the Minimum Message Length method for cluster analysis. Bibliography is available from this link. You can possibly start from this paper. On the technical front proceed as follows :

  • Decide how many principal components you need for the analysis (look here for a lazy way).
  • Decide how many frames you will use, noting the following. Memory usage is no problem with SNOB, you can possibly feed it all 5 million of your frames. But CPU time is. To give you a feeling for that : a test run using 200,000 frames and 10 principal components had been running for ~5 days at the time the power failed (and I didn't want to start all over again). Note also that the amount of CPU time needed is problem-dependant: For well-behaving (Gaussian-like distributed data) things can go much faster. For example, clustering 109819 frames using the top three components of a well-behaved data set took only two hours on a single core. YMMV.


Do it :

 
mkdir snob/
cd snob/
 
#
# Use every 10th line
#
perl -ne 'print ((0 == $. % 10) ? $_ : "")' /home/myself/something/carma/carma.dPCA.fluctuations.dat > selected_lines
 
#
# Use top 8 PCs (first column is the frame number)
#
awk '{print $1,$2,$3,$4,$5,$6,$7,$8,$9}' selected_lines > selected_lines_and_PCs


Prepare the vset file. Change the number '8' and the number of lines containing the expression 'PC?? 1' to reflect number of PCs selected above.

cat > data.vset
data
8                                  
PC01 1
PC02 1
PC03 1
PC04 1
PC05 1
PC06 1
PC07 1
PC08 1
<CTRL-D>


Prepare the header portion of samp file. The number of lines containing '0.000001' must be equal to number of PCs selected. The last number is number of frames (use wc selected_lines_and_PCs to determine).

cat > header
data
data
 0.000001
 0.000001
 0.000001
 0.000001
 0.000001
 0.000001
 0.000001
 0.000001
184456
<CTRL-D>


You can now prepare the samp file and the script for SLURM :

cat header selected_lines_and_PCs > data.samp
 
cat > snob.sh
#!/bin/tcsh
 
snob-vanilla << eof
data.vset
data.samp
doall 200
doall 200

doall 200
doall 200
doall 10000
mrep out
trep out
prclass -1 0
tree
stop
eof
 
exit
<CTRL-D>


When ready submit the job to the cluster :


sbatch -n 1 snob.sh

The job will take a while. It is reading time again …



Dealing with the output

SNOB will assign each and every frame to at least one cluster. Because this is a proper Bayesian approach, the assignments are probabilistic : what you get for every frame is a set of assignments of the form : “the probability of frame X belonging to cluster A is p1, belonging to cluster B is p2, belonging to cluster C is p3, …”. This, admittedly, is a very satisfying approach to clustering. You can envision a similarly probabilistic approach to calculating, say, representative structures for each cluster, but this may needlessly complicate things for large clusters with plenty of highly probable assignments. So we will keep it simple :

Then comes a similarity table (between the clusters identified), followed by the corresponding tree. You can use the relationships depicted by the tree to form larger clusters (by merging leafs that are highly similar).

The out.trep file

At its header contains number of clusters and number of frames per cluster. Then follows the real thing : to which cluster and with what probability each frame belongs to :

      50      82 (57)      76 (28)      83 ( 8)      58 ( 5)      70 ( 1)

...................................

 1098180      70 (75)      52 (13)      82 (10)      51 ( 1)
 1098190      76 (87)      70 ( 5)      58 ( 4)      82 ( 2)
END

For example, the line starting with 1098190 (above), says that the probablity of frame 1098190 belonging to cluster with the identifier 76 is p1=0.87, for the cluster 70 p2=0.05, 58 → 0.04, …

You can now form lists of frames that belong to specific clusters. To collect all frames for which the most probable cluster is 49 use something like :


grep -P '^\s+\d+\s+49 \(' out.trep | awk '{print $1, $2}' > Cluster_01.dat

You can now use carma to prepare a DCD file containing only the selected frames and then proceed with whichever analyses you are up to.



If you only want to select frames that belong to a given cluster with a probability higher than, say, 0.70, you could say something like :


grep -o -P '^\s+\d+\s+49 \(\d+' out.trep | tr -d '(' | awk '{if ($3 > 70) print $1,$2,$3}' > Cluster_01_p_0.70.dat
