A multi-class classification model for acute coronary syndrome (ACS) remains to be constructed based on multi-fluid metabolomics. Major confounders may exert spurious effects on the relationship ...

Discrete data such as counts of microbiome taxa resulting from next-generation sequencing are routinely encountered in bioinformatics. Taxa count data in microbiome studies are typically ...

How and why do human systems of marriage and reproduction differ from comparable systems in other mammals? To answer these questions, we use data from 90 human societies and 49 mammalian species. We ...

Determining changes in the composition of cell populations is made possible by technologies like single-cell transcriptomics, CyTOF, and microbiome sequencing. However, existing methods for ...

Joint Species Distribution Models (JSDM) have received a lot of attention in the last decade as they provide a general multivariate framework to study the joint abundances of all species from a ...
