Work to Replicate

Motivation

Network inference from Gene Expression data is a very usefull tool, and this new method shows a lot of promise in being capableof obtaining high performance with large networks. Despite that, no implementation is provided, and the tool is not available for use.

I am not planning to perform this replication due to lack of time, so I will only put this here if it catches the interest of someone.

Challenges

• Completeness and accuracy of the description of the algorithms: They seem to be described in a theroretical/mathematical level inside the paper, should not be too difficult to decifer.
  • Is the original code/data accessible? (and its complexity):
    • Data: yes
    • Code: no
