Description
Simulating Realistic Microbiome Data using 'MIDASim'.
Description
The 'MIDASim' package is a microbiome data simulator for generating realistic microbiome datasets by adapting a user-provided template. It supports the controlled introduction of experimental signals-such as shifts in taxon relative abundances, prevalence, and sample library sizes-to create distinct synthetic populations under diverse simulation scenarios.
