simule - A Constrained L1 Minimization Approach for Estimating Multiple
Sparse Gaussian or Nonparanormal Graphical Models
This is an R implementation of a constrained l1
minimization approach for estimating multiple Sparse Gaussian
or Nonparanormal Graphical Models (SIMULE). The SIMULE
algorithm can be used to estimate multiple related precision
matrices. For instance, it can identify context-specific gene
networks from multi-context gene expression datasets. By
performing data-driven network inference from high-dimensional
and heterogenous data sets, this tool can help users
effectively translate aggregated data into knowledge that take
the form of graphs among entities. Please run demo(simuleDemo)
to learn the basic functions provided by this package. For
