The datasets resulting from E-MAP experiments typically take the form of a symmetric pairwise matrix of interaction scores. These datasets have a significant number of missing values - up to 35% - that can reduce the effectiveness of some data analysis techniques and prevent the use of others. </p> <p>This project contains nearest neighbor based tools for the imputation and prediction of these missing values. The code is implemented in Python and uses a nearest neighbor based approach. Two variants are used - a simple weighted nearest neighbors, and a least squares based regression. </p></html>Colm RyanThu, 25 Nov 2010 21:01:10 -0000http://mloss.org/software/rss/comments/284http://mloss.org/software/view/284/bioinformaticsnearest neighborsgenetic interactionsimputationnetworksprediction
