SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill turns paired microbiome and metabolomics tables into interpretable cross-omics associations, so you can move from matched sample data to biologically meaningful microbe-metabolite links without manual method switching.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Paired association discovery: Run Spearman correlation with FDR control to rapidly rank candidate microbe-metabolite pairs.
  • Shared latent structure: Use CCA to detect a small number of canonical modes that explain joint variation across modalities.
  • Co-occurrence modeling: Train MMvec to estimate conditional metabolite profiles, latent embeddings, and top association pairs for deeper interpretation.
  • Validation and diagnostics: Compare methods on synthetic paired data and inspect training, co-occurrence, and biplot visualizations to verify results.
  • Use case: Analyze matched gut microbiome and metabolomics samples to identify which microbes covary with specific metabolites and whether those links are robust across methods.

Quick Start

Ask the skill to load paired microbiome and metabolomics AnnData objects, run Spearman, CCA, and MMvec, and return the strongest cross-omics pairs with validation plots.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find associations between paired microbiome and metabolomics data?

To find paired microbiome and metabolomics associations, load matched sample AnnData objects to run Spearman correlation with FDR control, CCA, and MMvec for validated cross-omics links.

Can I use MMvec to estimate conditional metabolite profiles from microbiome data?

Yes, you can train MMvec on paired microbiome-metabolomics AnnData to estimate conditional metabolite profiles, latent embeddings, and top association pairs using built-in early stopping.

What's the best way to validate microbe-metabolite co-occurrence across methods?

Validate microbe-metabolite co-occurrence by comparing Spearman, CCA, and MMvec results on synthetic paired datasets, inspecting training diagnostics and biplot visualizations to verify robustness.

Does this paired multi-omics analysis require matched sample alignment?

Yes, paired multi-omics analysis requires matched sample alignment. The workflow includes paired sample alignment checks to ensure microbiome and metabolomics AnnData modalities are properly cohort-triaged.

How does CCA detect shared latent structure in microbiome and metabolomics tables?

CCA detects shared latent structure by identifying a small number of canonical modes that explain joint variation across aligned microbiome and metabolomics AnnData modalities in matched samples.

Why use Spearman correlation with FDR control for metabolomics data?

Spearman correlation with FDR control rapidly ranks candidate microbe-metabolite pairs in metabolomics data, reducing false positives while identifying biologically meaningful cross-omics covariation.
