coexnet: An R package to build CO-EXpression NETworks from Microarray Data

Overview

Extracts the gene expression matrix from GEO DataSets as a AffyBatch object. Additionally, can make the normalization process using two different methods (vsn and rma). The summarization (pass from multi-probe to one gene) uses two different criteria (Maximum value and Median of the samples expression data) and the process of gene differentially expressed analisys using two methods (sam and acde). The construction of the co-expression network can be conduced using two different methods, Pearson Correlation Coefficient (PCC) or Mutual Information (MI) and choosing a threshold value using a graph theory approach.

Install

To install coexnet from GitHub you need devtools package:

# Install devtools
install.packages("devtools")
