HERMES Version 1.0

HERMES v1.0 is provided as a MATLAB function. It takes in an input file that includes expression profiles for two ceRNAs followed by expression profiles of their miRNA regulators. The application includes the following files.

• README – usage instructions

• sample_input – sample input file

• sample_output – sample output file
