workflowr checks: (Click a bullet for more information) ✔ R Markdown file: up-to-date
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.
✔ Environment: empty
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.
✔ Seed:
set.seed(20180411)
The command set.seed(20180411)
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.
✔ Session information: recorded
Great job! Recording the operating system, R version, and package versions is critical for reproducibility.
✔ Repository version: 225f991

Here we simulate a simple HMM with two states, \(Z_t \in \{1,2\}\) that represent two different genetic populations. The data \(X_t\) is genetic data at locus (position) \(t\), which we will assume are 0 or 1. So the emission distribution at position \(t\) in state \(k\) is Bernoulli(\(p_{kt}\)) where \(p_{kt}\) is the frequency of the 1 allele at position \(t\) in population \(k\).
The transition matrix for the Markov chain is symmetric, with probability 0.9 of staying in the same state, and 0.1 of switching at each step.
Here is some code to simulate from this:
set.seed(1)
T = 1000
K = 2
P = rbind(c(0.9,0.1),c(0.1,0.9))
# simulate the matrix of allele frequencies in each of the K populations at each of T loci
p = matrix(runif(K*T),nrow=K,ncol=T)
# Simulate the latent (Hidden) Markov states
Z = rep(0,T)
Z[1] = 1
for(t in 1:(T-1)){
Z[t+1] = sample(K, size=1, prob=P[Z[t],])
}
# Work out the corresponding bernoulli probability for each state
prob = rep(0,T)
for(i in 1:T){
prob[i] = p[Z[i],i]
}
# Simulate the emitted/observed values
X= rbinom(n=T,size=1,prob=prob)
Implement the forward and backwards algorithm to “decode” this HMM: that is to compute \(\Pr(Z_t=k|X_1,\dots,X_T)\) for each \(t\). Note that because of the longer length of this Markov chain you will need to do some normalizing of the forwards and backwards probabilities to avoid numerical errors.
Compute the error rate (compared with the truth) if you assign each \(Z_t\) to its most probable value.
Now imagine you did not know the true values for \(Z\). Explain how you would estimate the error rate directly from the output of the forward-backwards calculation. Compare this estimate with that obtained when you did know the truth. (Hint: this is a bit like estimating a False Discovery Rate from the Empirical Bayes Normal Means output)
