Correlation network analysis

For a large number of traits we construct correlation networks and visualize them. Traits are represented by nodes, lines (edges) correspond to correlations between the pairs of traits. We detect modules that are clusters with highly correlated traits and also hubs which are traits with many connections.

These are examples of correlation network analyses that we perform:

• correlation network construction and visualisation
• modules detection (clusters of highly correlated traits)
• hubs identification (nodes with many connections)
• differential correlation network construction and visualisation
