SANA NetGO: a combinatorial approach to using Gene Ontology (GO) terms to score network alignments.

MOTIVATION: Gene Ontology (GO) terms are frequently used to score alignments between protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks. Methods exist to measure GO similarity between proteins in isolation, but proteins in a network alignment are not isolated: each pairing is dependent on every other via the alignment itself. Existing measures fail to take into account the frequency of GO terms across net...

Identification of recurrent risk-related genes and establishment of support vector machine prediction model for gastric cancer.

This study sought to investigate genes related to recurrent risk and establish a support vector machine (SVM) classifier for prediction of recurrent risk in gastric cancer (GC).Based on the gene expression profiling dataset GSE26253, feature genes that were significantly associated with survival time and status were screened out. Subsequently, protein-protein interaction (PPI) network was construc...
