Checks: 6 1

Knit directory: polymeRID/

This reproducible R Markdown analysis was created with workflowr (version 1.4.0.9001). The Checks tab describes the reproducibility checks that were applied when the results were created. The Past versions tab lists the development history.


The R Markdown is untracked by Git. To know which version of the R Markdown file created these results, you’ll want to first commit it to the Git repo. If you’re still working on the analysis, you can ignore this warning. When you’re finished, you can run wflow_publish to commit the R Markdown file and build the HTML.

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(20190729) 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 version displayed above was the version of the Git repository at the time these results were generated.

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:

Random Forest (RF) is a machine learning algorithm which is based on the traditional concept of decision trees. It’s populat implementation was developed by Breiman (2001). It represents an ensemble classifier which has been reported to be the primary choice between different ensemble classifiers due to its easy handling and high classification accuracies (Sagi and Rokach 2018). More elaborations on scientific background

Different levels of data preprocessing might emphasize different features of the patterns to be learned by an algorithm. To grasp this, different transformations of the data were presented to the RF algorithm. Additionally, the raw data signal was jittered to test which transformation might proove beneficial in delivering high classification accuracies even in the presence of noise. To test this, we define a function which adds noise to the raw data and returns a list with the number of elements equal to the levels of noise applied.

addNoise = function(data, levels = c(0), category="class"){
  data.return = list()
  index = which(names(data) == category)
  for (n in levels){
    tmp = as.matrix(data[ , -index])
    if (n == 0){
      tmp = data
    }else{
      tmp = as.data.frame(jitter(tmp, n))
      tmp[category] = data[category]
    }
    data.return[[paste("noise", n, sep="")]] = tmp
  }
  return(data.return)
}

data = read.csv(file = paste0(ref, "reference_database.csv"), header = TRUE)
noisy_data = addNoise(data, levels = c(0,10,100,250,500), category = "class")

# indivitual elements can be selected by using [[ and refering to the index or the name
head(noisy_data[["noise100"]])[1:3,1:3]

Then, in another user defined function which uses the noisy_data objected as input specified data transormations are applied. These are normalization which centers and scales the input data, as well as different forms of the Savitkiy-Golay filter (Savitzky and Golay 1964) and first and second derivative of a raw spectrum. The functions iterates through the noise level elements in the noisy_data object and returns each specified transformation in a list element below the noise level. The exemplary function below applies the pre-processing for normalisation, standard filtering and first derivative only. The implementation of the function used in the project can be found here.

createTrainingSet = function(data, category = "class",
                             SGpara = list(p=3,w=11), lag = 15){

    tmp = as.data.frame(data[[noise]])

    tmp = tmp[!names(tmp) %in% category]
    
    # original data

The data base of (Primpke et al. 2018) currently shows 1863 variables for each observations. Most of these data points do not bear relevant information to distinguish between differenty types of particles. To shorten the computation time, one can use dimensionality reduction techniques such as principal component analysis (PCA). PCA also has been used to transform spectral data of microplastics in marine ecosystems before (Jung et al. 2018; Lorenzo-Navarro et al. 2018). PCA basically takes the input data for a given number of observation, rotates the axis
