OTU counts simulation
Description
We used a phylogenetic tree of OTUs from a real throat microbiome data set, which consists of 856 OTUs after discarding singleton OTUs. Then based on a complicate statistical meodel, we generated the OTU counts for each individual to simulate the feature of real microbiome data.
Usage
simulateData(nSam=100, s=12, ncluster = 20, mu = 1000, size = 25)
Arguments
nSam |
Sample size, the default value is 100. |
s |
The indicator of informative cluster. |
ncluster |
Positive integer specifying the number of clusters of they phylogenetic tree. |
mu |
The mean of the negative binomial distribution. |
size |
The size of the negative binomial distribution |
Value
A list object, including the informative OTU counts table and whole OTU counts table.
