One pair of similarity measures is based on seasonality indexes that reflect the timing of extreme events.
A function t:[0,1]→[0,1] is a transformation function, if there is a pair of similarity model s and distance function d s.t.
For each pair of similarity functions, we tested the null hypothesis H0 F-measure values of one function tend to be equal to tH0 F-measureother function, against the alternativaluesofhesis H1:F-measure values oneone function tend to be highequalr lower) toan those of the other function.
Particularly, GOSim [ 27] is used to compute similarities between GO terms and for a pair of domains, their similarity is defined as the maximum similarity of involved GO terms.
While species numbers were not significantly correlated between any pair of taxa, community similarities were positively correlated between bees and grasshoppers.
Iteratively, this algorithm computes the between-cluster similarity and merges the most similar pair of clusters until the similarity drops below the predefined threshold.
We propose Joint GWAS Analysis, a method that compares a pair of GWAS for similarity among the top SNP associations, top genes identified, gene functional clusters, and top biological pathways.
For each pair of atlases, the similarity indices for 1000 pairs of size-matched random parcellations were calculated, yielding an estimate of the chance distribution specific to each pair-wise comparison.
This is a natural cutoff to choose since there was no pair of spacers with similarity between 65%and90%0%.
For each TF-target gene pair, a series of similarity scores are calculated by scanning the PWM of the transcription factor along the promoter sequences of target gene.
Running the BLASTP program [ 30] all vs. all provides a graph of similarities between pairs of proteins, in which the genes are nodes and each significant pairing is an edge weighted by some similarity metric.
