COGENT: evaluating the consistency of gene co-expression networks.
Bozhilova LV., Pardo-Diaz J., Reinert G., Deane CM.
SUMMARY: Gene co-expression networks can be constructed in multiple different ways, both in the use of different measures of co-expression, and in the thresholds applied to the calculated co-expression values, from any given dataset. It is often not clear which co-expression network construction method should be preferred. COGENT provides a set of tools designed to aid the choice of network construction method without the need for any external validation data.
