Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Systems and methods for analyzing community structures within a plurality of environmental samples are described herein. The method includes obtaining taxa data corresponding to taxonomic groups within the plurality of the environmental samples. Based on the taxa data, an abundance value for each of the taxonomic groups with respect to each of the plurality of environmental samples is determined. Further, based on abundance values, an interaction factor for each pair of the taxonomic groups in the plurality of environmental samples is computed. The interaction factor is indicative of a degree of interaction between a pair of taxonomic groups from among the taxonomic groups. Based in part on interaction factors and abundance values, the plurality of the environmental samples is clustered.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A computer implemented method for analyzing community structures within a plurality of environmental samples, the method comprising: creating a plurality of metagenomic sequences by sequencing genetic material obtained from each of the plurality of environmental samples, wherein the plurality of the metagenomic sequences are analyzed to identify a corresponding taxonomic group; obtaining, by a processor, a taxonomic summary file corresponding to each…
