Pynmranalysis make it possible to work with 1H NMR spectrum using python. It makes analysing the spectrum more effective by offering many preprocessing functions and makes it easy to perform statistical modeling with great plots.
With Pynmranalysis, you are no longer restricted to use R or matlab to work with NMR signals !
Install the pachage with pip command:
pip install pynmranalysis
You may also install directly from this repository for the current master:
pip install git+git://github.com/1feres1/pynmranalysis.git

The following notebook shows you how to use the main functions of our library. This includes performing the preprocessing steps on 1H NMR dataset, scaling this data using NMR specific normalization function and finaly performing statistical analysis methodes like PCA and PLS-DA.

Preprocessing is a set of operations applyed to raw data in order to prepare it for further analysis
We will use a CSV file containing 1H-NMR spectra for 71 serum samples of patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and healthy controls,located in example/CHD.csv in the exemple folder of this repository
# import
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
#read coronary heart disease data
spectrum = pd.read_csv("CHD.csv")
#convert columns from string to real numbers
columns = [float(x) for x in spectrum.columns]
spectrum.columns = columns
In order to reduce the data dimensionality binning is commonly used. In binning, the spectra are divided into bins (so called buckets) and the total area within each bin is calculated to represent the original spectrum. Here is an example:
from pynmranalysis.nmrfunctions import binning
binned_data = binning(spectrum ,width=True , bin_size = 0.04 , int_meth='simps' , verbose=False)
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1 , figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before binning')
axs[1].plot(binned_data.iloc[0])
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum after binning')
plt.show()
By default, this step sets to zero spectral areas that are of no interest or have a sigificant and unwanted amount of variation (e.g. the water area).
from pynmranalysis.nmrfunctions import region_removal
r_spectrum = region_removal(spectrum=binned_data )
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1, figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(binned_data.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before region removal')
axs[1].plot(r_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum after region removal')
plt.show()
Note : The implementation of these functions is similar to R's PepsNMR library [1].
The comparison between the spectra is impossible without prior normalization. Therefore, a normalization step allows the data from all the spectra to be directly comparable
Each spectrum is divided by its mean so that its mean becomes 1.
from pynmranalysis.normalization import median_normalization
norm_spectrum = median_normalization(r_spectrum , verbose=False)
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1, figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(r_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before normalization')
axs[1].plot(norm_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum without normalization')
plt.show()
Each spectrum is divided by its median so that its median becomes 1.
from pynmranalysis.normalization import quantile_normalization
norm_spectrum = quantile_normalization(r_spectrum , verbose=False)
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1, figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(r_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before normalization')
axs[1].plot(norm_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum without normalization')
plt.show()
Each spectrum is divided by its first quartile so that its first quartile becomes 1.
from pynmranalysis.normalization import mean_normalization
norm_spectrum = mean_normalization(r_spectrum , verbose=False)
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1, figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(r_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before normalization')
axs[1].plot(norm_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum without normalization')
plt.show()
Each spectrum is divided by the value of the peak of the spectrum contained between "peak_range" inclusive (i.e. the maximum value of spectral intensities in that interval).
from pynmranalysis.normalization import peak_normalization
norm_spectrum = peak_normalization(r_spectrum , verbose=False)
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1, figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(r_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before normalization')
axs[1].plot(norm_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum without normalization')
plt.show()
We used the definition from Dieterle et al [2]. If ref_norm is "median" or "mean", we will use the median or the mean spectrum as the reference spectrum ; if it is a single number, will use the spectrum located at that row in the spectral matrix ,it defines manually the reference spectrum.
from pynmranalysis.normalization import PQN_normalization
norm_spectrum = PQN_normalization(r_spectrum ,ref_norm = "median" , verbose=False)
fig , axs = plt.subplots(2,1, figsize = (16,5))
fig.tight_layout()
axs[0].plot(r_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[0].set(title = 'spectrum before normalization')
axs[1].plot(norm_spectrum.iloc[0] )
axs[1].set(title = 'spectrum without normalization')
plt.show()
Note : The implementation of these functions is similar to R's PepsNMR library [1].
Principal component analysis, or PCA, is a statistical procedure that allows you to summarize the information content in large data tables by means of a smaller set of “summary indices” that can be more easily visualized and analyzed.
A pickle file containing 1H-NMR spectra for 64 serum samples of patients with two groups of digestive diseases, biliary/Pancreatic Disease and Intestinal Diseases is located in digestive_disease_data.pkl in the exemple folder of this repository.
# import
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
import pandas as pd
#read data
data = pd.read_pickle('digestive_disease_data.pkl')
# split data into predictive variables (spectrums) and target varibles (digestive disease group)
# target --> 1 :Biliary/Pancreatic Diseases | 0 : Intestinal Diseases
spectrum = data.iloc[ : , :-1]
target = data.iloc[ : , -1].values
PyPCA class and it's methods are used to perform PCA.
from pynmranalysis.analysis import PyPCA
#create pypca instance
pca = PyPCA(n_comps=3)
#fit the model to data
pca.fit(spectrum)
The score plot is the projection of samples in the dataset in lower dimension space of the first 2 components of the model
pca.score_plot()
pca.scree_plot()
pca.outlier_plot()
pca.target_plot(target)
Partial least squares-discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) is a versatile algorithm that can be used for predictive and descriptive modelling as well as for discriminative variable selection.
from pynmranalysis.analysis import PyPLS_DA
#create pyplsda instance
plsda = PyPLS_DA(ncomps=3)
#fit the model to data
plsda.fit(spectrum , target)
The interia plot is a paired barbot that shows R2Y (goodness of the fit ) score and R2Y (goodnes of predection with cross validation)
plsda.inertia_barplot(spectrum, target)
plsda.score_plot(target)
Note : The implementation of these functions is similar to R's PepsNMR library [3].
