SimSpread.jl is a Julia implementation of the SimSpread formalism for link prediction. SimSpread is a novel approach for predicting interactions between two distinct set of nodes, query and target nodes, using a similarity measure vector between query nodes as a meta-description in combination with the network-based inference for link prediction.

Originally developed for the prediction of pharmacological targets for a chemical compound, this packages generalizes the method to enable the prediction of links between any pair of nodes, e.g., user-object, reader-book, buyer-product, etc.

The package can be installed using the Pkg Julia package directly from the Julia prompt with the following:

using Pkg; Pkg.add(url = "https://github.com/cvigilv/SimSpread.jl.git")

For the newest version (development version, may break):

using Pkg; Pkg.add(url = "https://github.com/cvigilv/SimSpread.jl.git", rev = "develop")
