MiRKAT-S Package
نویسنده
چکیده
CompQuadForm, survival, and GUniFrac packages are required for MiRKAT-S. All three required packages are available on CRAN (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/). In this vignette, we use the throat data from GUniFrac for demonstration. In our demonstration, kernels are constructed from the family of UniFrac distances and the Bray-Curtis dissimilarity; however, additional options for relevant kernels are mentioned.
