Description

Microbial trend analysis (MTA) framework is an attractive and effective tool in investigating the dynamic microbial pattern in the longitudinal microbiome study. In particular, MTA can perform three tasks: 1) MTA can capture the common and major community level microbial dynamic trends for a given group of subjects and identify the dominant taxa; 2) MTA can examine whether the microbial overall dynamic trends are significantly different or not in groups; 3) MTA can classify a given subject based on its longitudinal microbial profiling. Both simulations and real data applications showed that MTA framework is robust and powerful in hypothesis testing, taxon identification, and subject classification.
