Abstract:We developed a new data analysis method, named Coexistence–Exclusion–Synchronization– Antisynchronization (CESA), to reveal statistically significant correlations from a set of integer compositional abundance time series of Operational Taxonomic Unit (OTU) data of mouse gut microbiota. First, time series are transformed to 0 (absence) and 1 (presence), and statistical tests are applied to extract significant coexistence and mutual exclusion relationships. Subsequently, for all pairs, the difference time series… Show more
