Each sample can now be represented as a mixture of cliques or, better said, as a mixture of biological processes. In this new representation the complexity associated with highly-dimensional microbiome data is solved and the noise removed. Samples can now speak to you directly or can become informative input for downstream analyses. Microbial cliques can also evolve over time or depend on metadata, allowing to answer a wide range of research questions. Finally, as a generative model Discovery allows to generate metagenomic profiles starting from a specified set of microbial cliques.
