Is low values of Q2 fine to keep move forward for manuscript ? #165

hi @[mortonjt]

I compiled songbird pipeline for my microbiome data based on different samples but due to low power of dataset, every time using different parameters like batch size, epoches, differential-prior values etc for different taxa level as Order and Genus , I got result with low values of Q2 as 0.014795 for one sample type and 0.056279 , 0.019888 for second sample type as shown in fitting model check. then is it fine if I move forward for my manuscript using these values?

please give me your suggestion on this,

hi @mortonjt,

could you suggest me about this? its highly helpful for analysis.

looking forward to hear from you,

If it is greater than 0, it is outperforming random. I wouldn't recommend any model fits that have a Q2 < 0
