Description: This package provides methods to efficiently detect
        competitive endogeneous RNA interactions between two genes.
        Such interactions are mediated by one or several miRNAs such
        that both gene and miRNA expression data for a larger number of
        samples is needed as input. The SPONGE package now also
        includes spongEffects: ceRNA modules offer patient-specific
        insights into the miRNA regulatory landscape.
