Fancy

Frequency and Nonlinear Correlation Hybrid Network Inference

Bioconductor version: 3.24 · Package version: 0.99.4

Infers microbial co-abundance networks by combining mutual information (via MRNET) and distance correlation into a single hybrid edge score. Bootstrap resampling provides frequency-based confidence, and a weighted scoring function ranks edges for downstream module analysis. Designed for metagenome-assembled genome (MAG) count tables.
