Background Since the establishment of the first biomedical ontology Gene Ontology (GO), the number of biomedical ontology has increased dramatically. Nowadays over 300 ontologies have been built including extensively used Disease Ontology (DO) and Human Phenotype Ontology (HPO). Because of the advantage of identifying novel relationships between terms, calculating similarity between ontology terms...
Background Similar diseases are always caused by similar molecular origins, such as diasease-related protein-coding genes (PCGs). And the molecular associations reflect their similarity. Therefore, current methods for calculating disease similarity often utilized functional interactions of PCGs. Besides, the existing methods have neglected a fact that genes could also be associated in the gene functional...
Similar diseases are often caused by their similar molecular origins, such as disease-related protein-coding genes (PCGs). And nowadays, the function of PCGs has been widely studied on a gene function network, where each node represents a gene and each edge indicates an interaction between pair-wise genes. Therefore, functional interaction between disease-related PCGs should be exploited to measure...
