Kernel-Based Metabolomic Differential Analysis
This package implements a kernel-based score test in metabolomic differential analysis. In order to capture the special natural of metabolomic data, two new kernel functions are designed in this package. One is a distance-based kernel and the other is a stratified kernel. This kernel approach also allows set-level analysis. It can be use to test whether a set of metabolites (or a metabolite pathway) are differentially expressed under two conditions.
