In lichen-lab/powmic: powmic: an R package for power assessment in microbiome case-control

powmic

power assessment in microbiome case-control studies

Description

Power analysis is essential to decide the sample size of metagenomic sequencing experiments in a case-control study for identifying differentially abundant microbes. However, the complexity of microbiome data characteristics such as excessive zeros, over-dispersion, compositional effect, intrinsically microbial correlations and variable sequencing depths makes the power analysis particularly challenging as the analytical form is usually unavailable. Here, we develop a simulation-based strategy and R package powmic to estimate the empirical statistical power while considering the complexity of data characteristics.
