Hi!
I highly recommend reading the NetCoMi paper for an understanding of what steps the functions do. Then it would be clear what the vectors mean. As written in the help page of netConstruct()
, the columns mean the following:
The reliability of an edge is difficult to assess. There are different sparsification methods with different approaches to "decide" which edges should occur in the network and which not. You could set the "sparsMethod" argument to "t-test" to perform a Student's t-test for each edge so that an edge only remains in the network if the corresponding correlation is significantly different from zero. Other package like SpiecEasi and SPRING perform a stability-based approach for sparsification. So, there is no general answer to your question.
Hi Stefanie, Quick questions about output netConstruct(). I used the example from the tutorial and got a data frame:
What do the names of the last three columns(asso、diss、adja) mean? And I have a problem about how we know the consequence network is reliable? Can we get a result similiarly p-value?
Thank you!
