LRBmat: A novel gut microbial interaction and individual heterogeneity inference method for colorectal cancer.

The gut microbial community has been shown to play a significant role in various diseases, including colorectal cancer (CRC), which is a major public health concern worldwide. The accurate diagnosis and etiological analysis of CRC are crucial issues. Numerous methods have utilized gut microbiota to address these challenges; however, few have considered the complex interactions and individual heterogeneity of the gut microbiota, which are important issues in genetics and intestinal microbiology, particularly in high-dimensional cases.
