Gene Semantic Similarity Score

A Gene Semantic Similarity Score is a Semantic Similarity Score that categorizes the semantic similarity between two or more genes.

• Example(s):
  • Jiang et al.(2011)'s Figure 2.
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • Semantic Word Similarity Score,
  • Gene Semantic Similarity Measure,
  • Protein Proximity Score,
  • Employee Performance Score,
  • Confidence Score Value,
  • PMI Score,
  • TF-IDF Score,
  • Z-Score.
