Hi, I would like to ask what is the difference between: i) importance calculated from GRNboost2 and ii) weights calculated from GENIE3

Are these values comparable in anyway? Or can I scale the numbers so that they are comparable?

I have the same questions , and i also wonder how to use the GRNboost2 result into the SCENIC

Hi I just downloaded this package and wondering this too. How do I evaluate important values?

Its 2022... Can someone please answer this now? How exactly are the "importance" scores calculated in GRNBoost implementation ?

It's 2023, and I still have the same question.
