Shall the alpha value be the same between Scissor() and reliability.test() functions?

Hello Scissor,
I'm wondering whether the alpha value should be the same between the below 2 functions. According to your tutorial, we need to optimize the best alpha in Scissor(). Do we need to change it accordingly in reliability.test()?
Scissor(bulk_dataset, sc_dataset, phenotype, tag = tag, alpha = 0.3, family = "binomial")
reliability.test(X, Y, network, alpha = 0.05, family = "binomial", cell_num = numbers, n = 100, nfold = 10)
Thanks!
Best,
YJ

Hi YJ,

Yes. You should use the optimized alpha in reliability.test().
