Improving the measurement of semantic similarity between gene ontology terms and gene products: insights from an edge- and IC-based hybrid method.
BACKGROUND: Explicit comparisons based on the semantic similarity of Gene Ontology terms provide a quantitative way to measure the functional similarity between gene products and are widely applied in large-scale genomic research via integration with other models. Previously, we presented an edge-ba...
