A Semi-Supervised Approach for Refining Transcriptional Signatures of Drug Response and Repositioning Predictions.

We present a novel strategy to identify drug-repositioning opportunities. The starting point of our method is the generation of a signature summarising the consensual transcriptional response of multiple human cell lines to a compound of interest (namely the seed compound). This signature can be der...
