GO-terms Semantic Similarity Measures


Bioconductor version: Development (3.24)

Semantic similarity analysis of Gene Ontology (GO) annotations provides a quantitative framework for comparing GO terms, gene products, and gene clusters. GOSemSim implements widely used information content- and graph-based similarity measures, including the methods of Resnik, Schlicker, Jiang, Lin, Wang and TCSS. It also provides utilities for preparing annotation data and combining term-level similarities into gene- and cluster-level scores.
