Cobrapy and Cameo FVA results difference

[MuhammedHasan]

Ubuntu 16.04
Python 3.5.2
solver: cplex

I have tried flux variability analysis with cameo and cobra. But their results are different. I report my experiment in this notebook.

Moreover, cameo's fva runs 10 times slower in my machine as you see in the notebook.

What is the wrong with this code?

Hi @MuhammedHasan!

Can you run cameo method like this?

cameo.flux_variability_analysis(model, fraction_of_optimum=1)

It should give you the same result. We do not fix the biomass reaction to 100% by default.

I tested myself and cameo FVA is running slow. We will have a look into it ASAP.

Please let me know if it solves your problem.

Thanks for your help.
