From: Relative impact of multi-layered genomic data on gene expression phenotypes in serous ovarian tumors
Comparison of the number of genes specifically impacted by single type of features and synergistically affected by multiple types of data. The number of genes impacted by each type of genomic data is presented as a Venn diagram. The integrative approach predicts a significantly smaller number of genes synergistically impacted by multiple types of data, and a greater number of genes that are specifically impacted by only one genomic data type, in comparison with the single data type based analysis. The integrative approach produces substantially less number of spurious associations in general, which can lead to more accurate characterization of genes based on the genomic association.
