GNC-app: A new Cytoscape app to rate gene networks biological coherence using gene-gene indirect relationships

摘要

Motivation: Gene networks are currently considered a powerful tool to model biological processes in the Bioinformatics field. A number of approaches to infer gene networks and various software tools to handle them in a visual simplified way have been developed recently. However, there is still a need to assess the inferred networks in order to prove their relevance.
