GeneExpressionSignature (version 1.18.0)
Gene Expression Signature based Similarity Metric
Description
This package gives the implementations of the gene
expression signature and its distance to each. Gene expression
signature is represented as a list of genes whose expression is
correlated with a biological state of interest. And its
distance is defined using a nonparametric, rank-based
pattern-matching strategy based on the Kolmogorov-Smirnov
statistic. Gene expression signature and its distance can be
used to detect similarities among the signatures of drugs,
diseases, and biological states of interest.
