Comprehensive analysis of network reconstruction approaches based on correlation in metagenomic data
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors characterize the principal biases in reconstructing networks from correlation measures, associated with the compositional character of relative abundance data, the diversity of abundances and the presence of unobserved species within a single sample, that might lead to wrong correlation estimates.
