@TravisEGibson @gilbertjacka @anshulkundaje @tkorem @StevenSalzberg1 @phylogenomics @multi_omics similarly “ML1vsAll” functions to train classifiers are designed to take “snm” data as only data input for training+testing https://t.co/ywZQUWLRmc

[Miriam Shiffman @meereeum]

@TravisEGibson @gilbertjacka @anshulkundaje @tkorem @StevenSalzberg1 @phylogenomics @multi_omics and e.g. here appears (at first reading) to do train/test split on prenormalized “vsnm” data (loaded at top of script) https://t.co/gMyrWTNJeL
