Microbiome-specific statistical methods often assume classical distribution models or take into account compositional specifics. These produce results that range within the specificity vs sensitivity space in such a way that type I and type II error that are difficult to ascertain in real microbiome data when a single method is used. Recently, a consensus approach based on multiple differential abundance (DA) methods was recently suggested in order to increase robustness. With dar, you can use dplyr-like pipeable sequences of DA methods and then apply different consensus strategies. In this way we can obtain more reliable results in a fast, consistent and reproducible way. authors: - family-names: Catala-Moll given-names: Francesc email: fcatala@irsicaixa.es orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2354-8648 repository: https://bioc.r-universe.dev repository-code: https://github.com/MicrobialGenomics-IrsicaixaOrg/dar commit: 644510eee97a56f9fd595ba951ec8b5299b27643 url: https://microbialgenomics-irsicaixaorg.github.io/dar/ date-released: '2023-09-21' contact: - family-names: Catala-Moll given-names: Francesc email: fcatala@irsicaixa.es orcid: https://orcid.org/0000-0002-2354-8648
