SIAMCAT 1.5.0 – Statistical Inference of Associations between Microbial Communities

SIAMCAT 1.5.0

:: DESCRIPTION

SIAMCAT is a modular framework for the statistical inference of associations between microbial communities and host phenotypes, such as disease states in clinical case-control studies. SIAMCAT is based on LASSO models, which offer distinctive advantages for model interpretation and microbial biomarker selection and avoid overfitting issues that can arise in naive combinations of feature selection and cross-validation.

DynBin – Binning Microbial Community Profiles

DynBin

:: DESCRIPTION

DynBin is a dynamic programming algorithm based binning method for ARISA data analysis which minimizes the overall differences between replicates from the same sampling spot. Data preprocessing identifies several outliers which are later found to be due to systematic errors. Clustering analysis of the time spots based on the binned data reveals important features of the biodiversity of the microbial communities.
