You will need to have Git LFS in order to properly download some binary files:

git clone https://github.com/EPFL-LCSB/redhuman.git /path/to/redhuman
cd /path/to/redhuman
git lfs install
git lfs pull

The scripts have been developed with Matlab 2017b, and CPLEX 12.7 (freely downloadable with the IBM Academic initiative), and successfully ran on several other versions of both softwares. However, it is important to respect the IBM compatibility specs sheets between Matlab, CPLEX, and the computer OS - available on IBM's website.

This module requires matTFA
