The study used in this tutorial has been previously published by Zheng et al. (2017), and the deconvolved and annotated data file deposited at the Metabolights data repository. The data can be accessed directly via its study ID: MTBLS547. This workflow requires data to be formatted as a Microsoft Excel file, using the Tidy Data framework (i.e. each column is a variable, and row is an observation). As such, the Excel file contains a Data Sheet and Peak Sheet. The Data Sheet contains all the metabolite concentrations and metadata associated with each observation (requiring the inclusion of the columns: Idx, SampleID, and Class). The Peak Sheet contains all the metadata pertaining to each measured metabolite (requiring the inclusion of the columns: Idx, Name, and Label). Please inspect the Excel file MTBLS547.xlsx used in this workflow before proceeding.

For the purpose of this study, we compare HFD (Class=1) vs. HC (Class=0) in a binary discriminant analysis.

ANN was implemented using Keras with a Theano backend.

: the number of neurons in the hidden layer (default=2)epochs
: the number of iterations in the model training (default=100) momentum
: a value that alters the learning rate schedule, whereby increasing the learning rate when the error cost gradient continue in the same direction (default=0.5)decay
: a value that alters the learning rate schedule, whereby decreasing the learning rate after each epoch/iteration (default=0)loss
: the function used to calculate the error of the model during the model training process known as backpropagation (default='binary_crossentropy')Preliminary analysis indicated, for the metabolomics data sets used in this study, that varying hyperparameters momentum
and decay
had little impact on performance, thus they were kept constant at their default values. Additionally, it was observed that fixing the number of epochs
to 400 proved effective across most of the data sets. Thus hyperparameter optimisation was reduced to a grid search across n_neurons = [2,3,4,5,6]
and learning_rate = [0.0001,0.001,0.01,0.1,1]
. After the number of neurons is chosen, the learning rate was fine-tuned as appropriate using a linear search.

, where 1
is the positive outcome, and 0
the negative outcome (eg. case=1 & control=0). A new variable peaklist
is created to hold the names (M1...Mn) of the metabolites to be used in the discriminant analysis. To create an independent dataset to evaluate, scikit-learn module's train_test_split()
function is used. The data is split into 2/3rd training (DataTrain
and YTrain
), and 1/3rd test (DataTest
and YTest
). The metabolite data corresponding to peaklist
is extracted from DataTrain
and placed in a matrix XTrain
. The XTrain
matrix is log-transformed and auto-scaled, with missing values imputed using k-nearest neighbours (k=3). Then the metabolite data corresponding to peaklist
is extracted from DataTest
and placed in a matrix XTest

matrix is log-transformed and auto-scaled (using mu and sigma from XTrain
), with missing values imputed using k-nearest neighbours (k=3).\n",
