Correcting for Background Noise Improves Phenotype Prediction from Human Gut Microbiome Data

2021-03-20

Abstract excerpt

The ability to predict human phenotypes accurately from metagenomic data is crucial for developing biomarkers and therapeutics for diseases. However, metagenomic data is commonly affected by technical or biological variables, unrelated to the phenotype of interest, such as sequencing protocol or host sex, which can greatly reduce or, when correlated to the phenotype of interest, inflate prediction accuracy. We per...
