Title
GO-based Functional Dissimilarity of Gene Sets.
Abstract
The article cites a research study that offers GFD (Gene Ontology (GO)-based Functional Dissimilarity), a novel dissimilarity measure for examining groups of genes based on the most relevant functions of the whole set. GFD assigns a numerical value to the gene set for each of the three GO sub-ontologies. It is said that a controlled vocabulary for describing the functions of genes and can be used to evaluate the functional coherence of gene offered by GO.
