Gene Function Prediction from Functional Association Networks Using Kernel Partial Least Squares Regression
Fig 2
Association between a gene’s degree and how well the algorithms predict new annotations for the gene.
The figure shows average ranking (top ranking = rank of 1.) for genes grouped according to weighted degree in the String network for all four benchmarks (GO Benchmark, RNAi benchmark in fly and human and fission yeast ageing benchmark). Error bars represent standard error of the mean.
