Too big modules #4

Open NomiCentarix opened 2 years ago

NomiCentarix commented 2 years ago

Hello,

I have been trying JActiveModule with simulated annealing multiple times, with two big biological networks and p-values from several tests, and I also tried several combinations of the parameters.

However, in most of the cases, no matter what was the number of the modules or the iterations, I keep got the following pattern: one huge module, which encompasses of ~40-90% of the original network, and the rest modules are small ones, with single nodes.

Do you have any idea why I got such results?

Sorry on the delayed reply. I was checking with the lab to see if anyone in our group was familiar with this codebase, but unfortunately the original developers left.

Couple niave questions:

If u are comfortable you could send your session file and what steps you ran and I could try to re-produce
