Benchmarking microbiome transformations favors experimental quantitative approaches to address compositionality and sampling depth biases
Here, the authors use simulated quantitative gut microbial communities to benchmark the performance of 13 common data transformations in determining diversity as well as microbe-microbe and microbe-metadata associations, finding that quantitative approaches incorporating microbial load variation out...

Here, the authors use simulated quantitative gut microbial communities to benchmark the performance of 13 common data transformations in determining diversity as well as microbe-microbe and microbe-metadata associations, finding that quantitative approaches incorporating microbial load variation outperform computational strategies in downstream analyses, urging for a widespread adoption of quantitative approaches, or recommending specific computational transformations whenever determination of microbial load of samples is not feasible. |
