Dear Bioconductor members,

I'd like to draw your attention to the new package that implements a
benchmarking
of several gene network inference algorithms from gene expression data.

The *netbenchmark* package is now available in the development branch:

http://master.bioconductor.org/packages/3.1/bioc/html/netbenchmark.html

In the last decade, several methods have tackled the challenge of
reconstructing gene regulatory networks from gene expression data. Several
papers have compared and evaluated the different network inference methods
relying on simulated data. This is a new comparison that assesses different
methods in a high-heterogeneity data scenario which could reveal the
specialization of methods for the different network types and data.

Your comments and suggestions are welcome and will assist in continuously
improving the package.

Kind regards,

Pau Bellot
