This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.7.2). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.
Great! Since the R Markdown file has been committed to the Git repository, you know the exact version of the code that produced these results.
Great job! The global environment was empty. Objects defined in the global environment can affect the analysis in your R Markdown file in unknown ways. For reproduciblity it’s best to always run the code in an empty environment.
The command set.seed(1) was run prior to running the
code in the R Markdown file. Setting a seed ensures that any results
that rely on randomness, e.g. subsampling or permutations, are
reproducible.
Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.
Nice! There were no cached chunks for this analysis, so you can be confident that you successfully produced the results during this run.
Great job! Using relative paths to the files within your workflowr project makes it easier to run your code on other machines.
Great! You are using Git for version control. Tracking code development and connecting the code version to the results is critical for reproducibility.
The results in this page were generated with repository version dca7ffb. See the Past versions tab to see a history of the changes made to the R Markdown and HTML files.
Note that you need to be careful to ensure that all relevant files for
the analysis have been committed to Git prior to generating the results
(you can use wflow_publish or
wflow_git_commit). workflowr only checks the R Markdown
file, but you know if there are other scripts or data files that it
depends on. Below is the status of the Git repository when the results
were generated:

Note that any generated files, e.g. HTML, png, CSS, etc., are not included in this status report because it is ok for generated content to have uncommitted changes.
These are the previous versions of the repository in which changes were

Fig. 4a. Scatterplot showing each GP’s prediction (AUC) of level 1 lineage (x-axis) versus level 2 cluster (y-axis), in healthy non-thymocyte cells. Each point is one GP; the dashed line is the identity. GPs reaching AUC > 0.9 on either axis are colored and labelled: blue where the cluster AUC is the larger of the two, red where the lineage AUC is. Most GPs sit above the identity line, predicting a cluster better than any whole lineage.

Fig. 4b. Heatmap of mean GP activity per level 2
cluster, for the 69 GPs that reach AUC > 0.9 in at least one cluster.
Each row is centered on that GP’s mean across the clusters shown (blue,
below; red, above; saturating at 0.2). Columns are the 80 clusters with
at least 100 healthy non-thymocyte cells, ordered by lineage (Cell Type
bar), then by activation state (Level2 Group bar) as a contiguous block,
then alphabetically; rows are grouped by the cluster in which the GP is
most active. Colors and column order follow Figure 1d and Extended Data
Fig. 2d, and as there the miniverse (.wM) clusters are
excluded.
# ============================================================
# 4c: one stacked bar of mean loadings per level-2 cluster, the Treg row
# ============================================================
# The Treg structure-plot row with one bar per cluster, holding that
# cluster's mean loading per GP instead of one bar per cell -- the average of
# that row's bars. Same GPs (the 11 with AUC > 0.9 in some Treg cluster), same
# per-row palette, same cells, minus Treg.wM.
#
# Bars are raw mean loadings, not rescaled to a common height: that is what
# makes them the average of those bars, since structure_plot() does not
# renormalize a subset of topics either. A tall bar means the cluster carries
# more total activity over the row's GPs, not just a different mix.
#
#
# Unlike 4d and the structure plots this panel is not drawn at the structure
# plot's 16 x 3 in: a chart of seven bars does not need a structure plot's
# width, and Ziang asked for tall and narrow.

Fig. 4c. Mean GP activity of each Treg cluster, for
the 11 GPs reaching AUC > 0.9 in at least one Treg cluster. Each bar
is one cluster and is stacked by GP, so its height is that cluster’s
total mean loading over these GPs. Clusters with fewer than 100 healthy
non-thymocyte cells, and the miniverse (.wM) cluster, are
not shown.

Fig. 4d. Structure plot of the same GPs in the same cells at single-cell resolution: each bar is one cell, colored by its GP membership and grouped by cluster. Colors match (c). Panel (c) is the per-cluster average of these bars.
