NetCoMi is an R package that provides an extensive toolbox for constructing,
analyzing, and comparing networks for microbial compositional data. It also
offers the ability to quantify network differences and thus enables insights
into whether single taxa, groups of taxa, or the overall network structure
change between groups.
The package was developed as part of my Ph.D. thesis,
in collaboration with my supervisors and coauthors
Anne-Laure Boulesteix
and Christian L. Müller,
as well as the group of
Prof.Dr. Erika von Mutius
at the Helmholtz Zentrum München.
The manuscript describing the
workflow and theory behind the package is published in
Briefings in Bioinformatics.
