Distance-correlation based Gene Set Analysis for longitudinal
gene expression profiles
Description
Distance-correlation based Gene Set Analysis for
longitudinal gene expression profiles. In longitudinal studies,
the gene expression profiles were collected at each visit from
each subject and hence there are multiple measurements of the
gene expression profiles for each subject. The dcGSA package
could be used to assess the associations between gene sets and
clinical outcomes of interest by fully taking advantage of the
longitudinal nature of both the gene expression profiles and
clinical outcomes.
