[R] [BioC] similarity between two gene lists with varied length
Hi Weiwei, You may want to have a look at the Bioconductor package OrderedList. It searches for similarities in gene rankings without forcing the user to specify a threshold, where to cut the lists. Hope this helps, Cheers, Claudio -----Original Message----- From: "Weiwei Shi" [mailto:helprhelp at gmail.com] Sent: Sunday, August 24, 2008 2:56 AM To: "r-help at stat.math.ethz.ch" <R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch> Cc: Bioconductor <bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch> Subject: [BioC] similarity between two gene lists with varied length Dear listers, a little off-topic: I am looking for and compare algorithms which can calculate "distance" or "similarity" between two gene lists with different lengths.
