## weightedMultipleLm

### Description

weightedMultipleLm solves the weighted multiple linear regression model via matrix operation

### Usage

    weightedMultipleLm(x, y, w = rep(1, nrow(x))/nrow(x))

### Arguments

`x` | a matrix of numeric values in the size of genes x featureA
`y` | a matrix of numeric values in the size of genes x featureB
`w` | a vector of numeric values indicating the weights of genes

### Value

a matrix of numeric values in the size of featureA*featureB, indicating the weighted multiple regression coefficients

### Examples

    # load data
    data(heart.metaXcan)
    gene <- heart.metaXcan$gene_name

    # extract the imputed Z-score of gene differential expression, which follows
    # the normal distribution
    fc <- heart.metaXcan$zscore

    # use as weights the prediction R^2 and the fraction of imputation-used SNPs
    usedFrac <- heart.metaXcan$n_snps_used / heart.metaXcan$n_snps_in_cov
    r2 <- heart.metaXcan$pred_perf_r2
    weights <- usedFrac*r2

    # build a new data frame for the following weighted linear regression-based
    # enrichment analysis
    data <- data.frame(gene,fc,weights)
    head(data)

    net <- MSigDB.KEGG.Pathway$net

    # intersect the permuated genes with the gene sets of interest
    data2 <- orderedIntersect( x = data , by.x = data$gene ,
    by.y = rownames(net)  )
    net2 <- orderedIntersect( x = net , by.x = rownames(net) ,
    by.y = data$gene  )
    all( rownames(net2) == as.character(data2$gene) )

    # perform the weighted multiple linear regression
    observedTstats = weightedMultipleLm( x=net2 , y=data2$fc, w=data2$weights )

    # calculate the p values of the weighted multiple regression coefficients
    observedPval = 2 * pt(abs(observedTstats), df=sum(weights>0,na.rm=TRUE)-2,
    lower.tail=FALSE)

    res = data.frame( observedTstats , observedPval )
    head(res)
