ABSTRACT:
Techniques for processing gene expression data and predicting gene relationships are provided. More specifically, a method for processing gene expression ratios may include discretizing a first expression ratio for a first gene and a second expression ratio for a second gene for each of a plurality of experiments into one of three indications, calculating the probability that the combination of the discretized expression ratios for each of the plurality of experiments arises by random chance, and determining whether the first gene and the second gene are related.
