NExON-Bayes: A Bayesian approach to network estimation informed by ordinal covariates
In heterogeneous disease settings, accounting for intrinsic sample variability is crucial for obtaining reliable and interpretable omic network estimates. However, most graphical model analyses of biomedical data assume homogeneous conditional dependence structures, potentially leading to misleading conclusions. To address this, we propose a joint Gaussian graphical model that leverages sample-level ordinal covariates (e.g., disease stage) to account for heterogeneity and improve the estimation…
