1 The Multi-Block PLS Discriminant Analysis method
Metabolomics is a powerful phenotyping tool, generating complex data that need dedicated treatments to enrich knowledge of biological systems. In particular, to investigate relations between experimental factors, phenotypes and metabolism, discriminant statistical analyses are generally performed separately on metabolomic datasets, complemented by associations with metadata. Another relevant strategy is to simultaneously analyse thematic data blocks by a multi-block partial least squares discriminant analysis (MBPLSDA) allowing determining the importance of variables of the different data blocks in discriminating groups of observations, taking into account data structure.

A selection of reduced non-targeted metabolomics datasets from an article of Zhang et al. have been used to illustrate the method application.

In this study, plasma were analyzed by several metabolomics platforms.
In our example, the 6 samples from 5 mutant groups (Dhfr, Gnpda1, Plk1, Sra1, Ulk3) and the 40 controls were retained, with the exception of 2 animals that had missing values in non-targeted metabolomics. Three HILIC-NEG and 2 HILIC-POS variables were then removed due to missing or infinite values. Lastly, we kept only 2 data blocks (GCTOF and HILIC POS) to reduce the computation time. Always in our example, the objective was to highlight metabolites discriminating males and females.

A demonstration dataset used for this example is imported. It contains 2 metabolomics datasets and 1 sample metadata block, with the groups to be discriminated.
All data blocks should have exactly the same samples (rows). The block dimension can be checked with the following command:
# Check dimension
BlockNames <- names(Zhang2023)
nbrBlocs <- length(BlockNames)
dims <- lapply(X=Zhang2023[BlockNames], FUN=dim)
names(dims) <- BlockNames

# Check rows names in any order
row_names <- lapply(X=Zhang2023[BlockNames], FUN=rownames)
rns <- do.call(cbind, row_names)
rns.unique <- apply(rns, 1, function(x) length(unique(x)))
if (max(rns.unique) > 1) {
stop("Rows names are not identical between blocks.")
}
# Check order of samples
check_row_names <- all(sapply(X=row_names, FUN=identical, y = row_names[[1]]))
if (!check_row_names && max(rns.unique) == 1) {
print("Rows names are not in the same order for all blocks.")
}
# Remove unuseful object for the next steps
rm(row_names, rns, rns.unique, check_row_names)4 Data visualization by PCA on separate data blocks
PCA on different datablocks is necessary to verify that there is no outlier, and that the data scaling is suited. In our example, unit variance scaling is suited: For both metabolomic dataset, the scatterplot of loadings is homogeneous, and there are no outliers. With other datasets, particularly those containing more noise, it would have been necessary to apply a log transformation with Pareto scaling.

5 MB-PLS-DA model
In MB-PLS-DA, datablocks are separatly scaled, and weigthed by their Frobenius norm. Then, they are concatenated before a PLS-DA to predict or explain a categorical variable. The main steps to apply this method are:
the determination of the optimal number of latent variables of the model, proposed in the package by cross-validation
the model validation, proposed by permutation test
the model analysis, based on the scatter plot, the loading plot, the Variable Importance in Projection
the calculation of the predicted categories for each observation.
In rchemo, all these steps can be performed with a single function. The arguments are:
Xlist: list of training X-data (n, p).
Xnames: names of the X-matrices
Xscaling: vector of Xlist length. X variable scaling among “none” (mean-centering only), “pareto” (mean-centering and pareto scaling), “sd” (mean-centering and unit variance scaling). If “pareto” or “sd”, uncorrected standard deviation is used.
Y: Training Y-data (n, 1)
Yscaling: Y variable scaling among “none” (mean-centering only), “pareto” (mean-centering and pareto scaling), “sd” (mean-centering and unit variance scaling). If “pareto” or “sd”, uncorrected standard deviation is used.
weights Weights (n, 1) to apply to the training observations. Internally, weights are “normalized” to sum to 1. Default to NULL (weights are set to 1/n).
newXlist: list of new X-data (m, p) to consider.
newXnames: names of the newX-matrices
method: method to apply among “mbplsrda”,“mbplslda”,“mbplsqda”
prior: for mbplslda or mbplsqda models : The prior probabilities of the classes. Possible values are “unif” (default; probabilities are set equal for all the classes) or “prop” (probabilities are set equal to the observed proportions of the classes in y).
step: step of the analysis among “nlvtest” (cross-validation to help determine the optimal number of latent variables), “permutation” (permutation test), “model” (model calculation),“prediction” (prediction of newX-data or X-data if any))
nlv: number of latent variables to test if step is “nlvtest”; number of latent variables of the model if step is not “nlvtest”.
modeloutput: if step is “model”: outputs among “scores”, “loadings”, “coef” (regression coefficients), “vip” (Variable Importance in Projection; the VIP calculation being based on the proportion of Y-variance explained by the components, as proposed by Mehmood et al (2012, 2020).)
cvmethod: if step is “nlvtest” or “permutation”: “kfolds” for k-folds cross-validation, or “loo” for leave-one-out.
nbrep: if step is “nlvtest” and cvmethod is “kfolds”: An integer, setting the number of CV repetitions. Default value is 30. Must me set to 1 if cvmethod is “loo”
seed: if step is “nlvtest” and cvmethod is “kfolds”, or if step is “permutation: a numeric. Seed used for the repeated resampling
samplingk: A vector of length n. The elements are the values of a qualitative variable used for stratified partition creation. If NULL, the first observation is set in the first fold, the second observation in the second fold, etc…
nfolds: if cvmethod is “kfolds”. An integer, setting the number of partitions to create.Default value is 10.
npermut: if step is “permutation”: An integer, setting the number of Y-Block with permutated responses to create. Default value is 30.
criterion: if step is “nlvtest” or “permutation” and method is “mbplsrda”, “mbplslda” or “mbplsqda”: optimisation criterion among “rmse” and “err” (for classification error rate)))
selection: if step is “nlvtest”: a character indicating the selection method to use to choose the optimal combination of components, among “localmin”, “globalmin”,“1std”. If “localmin”: the optimal combination corresponds to the first local minimum of the mean CV rmse or error rate. If “globalmin” : the optimal combination corresponds to the minimum mean CV rmse or error rate. If “1std” (one standard error rule) : it corresponds to the first combination after which the mean cross-validated rmse or error rate does not decrease significantly.
5.1 determination by cross-validation of the optimal number of latent variables of the model
In this example,the mbplslda method with an uniform prior is performed: a linear discriminant analysis is applied on the PLS scores to obtain the classifications.
In the mbplsrda method, the classification step is performed according to the predicted value, and consequently, it doesn’t take into account the variance of the scatter plot. And the mbplsqda method is mode suited when the scatter plot has an atypical shape.
The cvmethod is to choose according to the number of observations. If this number is small, a leave-one-out cross-validation is more suited, but can lead to optimistic results. In the other cases, it could be better to apply a k-fold cross-validation, usually with 3, 5 or 10 folds. In order to reduce the computational time, in this example, the number of cross- validation repetition is set to 10. But it must be higher (at least 30).
Concerning the criterion, in a discriminant context, it is more logical to choose the classification error rate. However, this can result in an error plot depending on the number of latent variables that is not smooth, so some prefer to use rmsecv instead.
In the example, the selection parameter is set to “localmin”. Normally, the cross-validated error decreases until it reaches the optimal number of latent variables, before rising again. Sometimes it fluctuates before this rise, so choosing “localmin” allows for a more parsimonious model. The “1std” option is also very parsimonious because it only considers a larger number of latent variables if doing so significantly improves the cross-validated error.

5.2 model validation by permutation test
Usually, the cross-validation parameters are the same than for the determination of the optimal number of latent variables. In this example, as for the determination of the optimal number of latent variables, in order to reduce the computational time, the number of cross- validation repetition and the number of permuted responses are set to 10. But they must be higher (at least 30). To be valid, all the cross-validated errors obtained on permuted data must be lower than the cross-validated error obtained on the original data.
