For each model, the highest order terms are presented and, where multiple terms are present, the relative importance of individual terms (and their interactions) within a model can be compared using the likelihood ratios (L-ratios).
It was observed that interactions between cells in cell culture can be compared to chemical bonds or molecular interactions in mixtures of fluids [ 539].
Annotated interactions contributed by individual databases can be compared, highlighting any possible discrepancies between them.
In silico interactions within the pathway (Fig. 1b) can be compared with linear and non-linear interrelations derived from expression data from normal colon and colon tumors [E-MTAB-57 (Ancona et al., 2006), E-GEOD-37892, ArrayExpress (Parkinson et al., 2011)].
A potential advantage of investigating genetic interactions using gene expression is that changes can be compared at the level of individual genes.
Candidate drug compounds known to inhibit the same target protein can be compared using their chemophoric (interaction) patterns.
For some of the putative interaction partners mutants are available and their phenotypes can be compared to the one of the sec7 - mutant.
In particular, host-pathogen interaction networks for two or more pathogen genomes can be compared, using both phylogenetic and geographical data.
For instance, datasets generated using different methods can be compared and structurally known domain interactions provided by iPfam or 3did (Stein et al., 2009) can be used to verify predicted domain interactions.
The interaction between stakeholders and institutions providing counseling and other services can be compared to a framework within which the interventions are defined and followed up.
