avelinkdis

  
              An input matrix which contains the gene profiles                 
             


              An integer indicating the number of case group
             


              A character string indicates which method to be used to compute the distances between genes, euclidean and Manhattan are available to choose
             

Meth


          A function which is used to calculate the distances between case and control group by method of group average method
         

methods

This package provides methods and examples to support a
method of Gene Set Analysis (GSA).  DBGSA is a novel
distance-based gene set enrichment analysis method. We consider
that, the distance between 2 groups with different phenotype by
focusing on the gene expression should be larger, if a certain
gene functional set was significantly associated with a
particular phenotype.
