ulrb

Unsupervised Learning Based Definition of Microbial Rare Biosphere

CRAN Package

A tool to define rare biosphere. 'ulrb' solves the problem of the definition of rarity by replacing arbitrary thresholds with an unsupervised machine learning algorithm (partitioning around medoids, or k-medoids). This algorithm works for any type of microbiome data, provided there is a species abundance table. For validation of this method to different species abundance tables see Pascoal et al, 2024 (in peer-review). This method also works for non-microbiome data.
