FSim: A Novel Functional Similarity Search Algorithm and Tool for Discovering Functionally Related Gene Products
Background. During the analysis of genomics data, it is often required to quantify the functional similarity of genes and their products based on the annotation information from gene ontology (GO) with hierarchical structure. A flexible and user-friendly way to estimate the functional similarity of...
