Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Assays of multiple tumor samples frequently reveal recurrent genomic aberrations, including point mutations and copy-number alterations, that affect individual genes. Analyses that extend beyond single genes are often restricted to examining pathways, interactions and functional modules that are already known. METHODS: We present a method that identifies functional modules without any information...
