Gene2vec: distributed representation of genes based on co-expression

Abstract Background Existing functional description of genes are categorical, discrete, and mostly through manual process. In this work, we explore the idea of gene embedding, distributed representation of genes, in the spirit of word embedding. Results From a pure data-driven fashion, we trained a...
