CoNet Changelog

What's new in CoNet 1.0 Beta 6

Sep 1, 2014
  • change of license (from 22nd May 2014 onwards, CoNet is distributed under the GNU General Public License version 2)
  • fixed bug in Kendall implementation
  • treatment of ties in Spearman implementation fixed
  • fixed problem of setting initial edge selection parameter from settings file
  • if groups are provided, the group properties are listed when matrix info is selected
  • improved taxonomy parsing from biom files (hit number is parsed if provided)
  • fixed rarefaction bug (previously, error message prevented to carry out rarefaction)
  • network comment does no longer list removed edges and filtered rows, to reduce size of big networks
  • logging level can now be adjusted (defaults to fatal to reduce size of log file)

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 5 (May 5, 2014)

  • added p-value computation with Fisher's Z-score for correlations
  • Lallich routine selection without multiple test correction rejected - bug fixed
  • parsing error for sample names starting with E/e and followed by numeric value fixed
  • fixed positive-edges-only filter
  • fixed computation of maximum number of zeros per row (for matrix property display)
  • added error message in case automatically obtained lower and upper threshold overlap

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 4 (May 5, 2014)

  • implemented export of positive and negative node degree
  • option added to report input matrix properties and suggestion of CoNet settings based on these properties
  • fixed settings file bug (disable speedup not set/exported from/to settings file)
  • fixed settings file bug (minzeropairs filter not set from settings file)
  • fixed settings file bug (copresence/mutual exclusion-only-filter not set back correctly to default)
  • fixed command line export bug (--topbottom not exported)
  • fixed treatment of feature rows for taxa without lineages in renormalization
  • edges for which methods infer conflicting interaction types are filtered now
  • row combination involving summed row are forbidden now

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 3.1 (Nov 19, 2013)

  • Jean-Sebastien Lerat's library KLD implementation: removed division by number of value pairs
  • bug fix for networks merged on the score level
  • improved non-SGE parallelization support

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 3 (Nov 19, 2013)

  • fixed bug concerning automatic lineage assignment for higher-level taxa with groups
  • allow transposing feature matrix
  • allow feature/input matrix sample matching to support feature data with samples that have a different order than input matrix samples
  • more flexible OTU table from biom file parsing (support parsing lineages from row names)
  • better matrix parsing error catching
  • too large data menu size fixed
  • prevent generation of command line call in the presence of input errors
  • removed faulty error message about combining ARACNE with missing values when JSL MI was selected

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 2 (Nov 19, 2013)

  • support for MI and Jensen-Shannon with Jean-Sebastien Lerat's library
  • interface offers 3 MI implementations: minet, aracne and Jean-Sebastien Lerat's library
  • fixed bug related to keeping discarded rows as one row per group
  • fixed bug concerning group exclusion (betweengroupsonly, withingroupsonly)
  • prevent kept summed rows to appear in the network

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 1.1 (Nov 19, 2013)

  • No Blast hit entry supported in QIIME OTU tables
  • execution of R batch scripts in given directory

New in CoNet 1.0 Beta 1 (Nov 19, 2013)

  • This release features the re-implementation of the CoNet core by Jean-Sebastien Lerat.
  • The re-implementation included the renormalization and the measures:
  • Pearson
  • Spearman
  • Kendall
  • Hellinger
  • Euclid
  • Steinhaus
  • Bray Curtis
  • Kullback-Leibler
  • Variance of Log-ratios
  • Hilbert-Schmidt independence criterion
  • All measures were tested to give the same networks from test data as the previous implementations.
  • This release also adds the following features:
  • support of QIIME OTU tables with and without taxonomy
  • versioning via CoNet property file, valid for both Cytoscape plugin and command line version
  • added the possibility to filter rows with less than the given number of non-double-zero pairs
  • directory of R batch scripts can be specified on command line
