Pairwise Semantic Similarity for a List of Genes

Description

Given a list of genes, this function calculates pairwise semantic similarities.

Usage

mgeneSim(
  genes,
  semData,
  measure = "Wang",
  drop = "IEA",
  combine = "BMA",
  verbose = TRUE
)

Arguments

genes	A list of entrez gene IDs.
semData	GOSemSimDATA object
measure	One of "Resnik", "Lin", "Rel", "Jiang", "TCSS" and "Wang" methods.
drop	A set of evidence codes based on which certain annotations are dropped. Use NULL to keep all GO annotations.
combine	One of "max", "avg", "rcmax", "BMA" methods, for combining semantic similarity scores of multiple GO terms associated with protein or multiple proteins assiciated with protein cluster.
verbose	show progress bar or not.

Value

similarity matrix
