Predicting binary events such as newborns with large birthweight is important for obstetricians in their attempt to reduce both maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Such predictions have been a challenge in obstetric practice, where longitudin...
BACKGROUND: Missing values are commonly present in microarray data profiles. Instead of discarding genes or samples with incomplete expression level, missing values need to be properly imputed for accurate data analysis. The imputation methods can be...
Lots of similarity-based algorithms have been designed to deal with the problem of link prediction in the past decade. In order to improve prediction accuracy, a novel cosine similarity index CD based on distance between nodes and cosine value betwee...
