Illustration of NEMoE: a, b The input matrix of NEMoE: n samples with q nutrient features and p microbial features. c A conceptual workflow of NEMoE, where the joint optimization is achieved by EM algorithm to maximize the regularized likelihood function. d A toy example showing a nutritional-ecotype in the microbiome PD study. The nutrient intake is clustered into K latent classes. e In each latent class, the microbial signatures of PD are different, which is reflected by the coefficients in the experts network
