Throughout this work, we found it really helpful to organize our thinking along 'Marr's three levels of analysis':
1. the computational problem
2. the algorithmic solution
3. biophysical implementation

Check out our review laying out this conceptual framework here: buff.ly/NE4JEOA
Marr's three levels for embryonic development: information, dynamical systems, gene networks
Developmental patterning comprises processes that range from purely instructed, where external signals specify cell fates, to fully self-organized, where spatial patterns emerge autonomously through…

It's not even an "intuition" it's the most basic test. If your method fails in the simplest possible synthetic data, how can it possibly work on real data? I'm always amazed that this isn't the absolute minimal standard required. So much wasted time on analyses that just don't work.
