As a result we obtained a ranked list of experiments, sorted by the probability of the query given the experiment and the model, as discussed in Section 2. We computed the average precision, a standard summary statistic for evaluating retrieval performance, over the top 10 retrieved experiments.
For the case of common unknown variance, the proposed generalized subset selection procedure for selecting the largest mean becomes exactly the same as that has been given in Hsu (in: T.J. Santner, A.C. Tamhane (Eds)., Design of Experiments: Ranking and Selection, Marcel Dekker, New York, 1984, pp. 179 198).
By ranking genes by the ratio of experiments showing differential expression across many conditions, Chen et al. [ 68] were able to rediscover disease genes with 79% specificity and 37% sensitivity and proposed using this criterion to prioritize candidates resulting from GWAS associations.
In continuation of our earlier study on protein flexibility in relationship to PCV and LV, this study analyzes the importance of PCV and LV in the scoring and ranking of ligands in docking experiments.
We conduct a series of experiments involving ranked retrieval, using queries defined methodologically, in an effort to understand the practicalities of incorporating ranked retrieval into the systematic search task.
Until the third day of experiment, the ranking of treatments did not change and the rate of NH3 emissions were highest in BS, followed by PS and ammonium nitrate, and were very low in control for both soils.
In the Results and Discussion section, we report on a number of experiments using a ranked retrieval search engine, and a number of search strategies, and compare these to baseline Boolean search results obtained using the OVID interface to MEDLINE.
This situation can be seen in Table 1, which shows the ranking of similarity functions for both experiments, using an average of F-measure (the standard deviation was ≈0.03).
Second, in our experiments, the ranking of a SNP is decided by the strength of effect of the most significant interaction that includes this SNP.
