Multivariate Entropy Characterizes the Gene Expression and Protein-Protein Networks in Four Types of Cancer

Multivariate Entropy Characterizes the Gene Expression and Protein-Protein Networks in Four Types of Cancer

There is an important urgency to detect cancer at early stages to treat it, to improve the patients’ lifespans, and even to cure it. In this work, we determined the entropic contributions of genes in cancer networks. We detected sudden changes in entropy values in melanoma, hepatocellular carcinoma,...
