On triangle inequalities of correlation-based distances for gene expression profiles

Abstract Background Distance functions are fundamental for evaluating the differences between gene expression profiles. Such a function would output a low value if the profiles are strongly correlated—either negatively or positively—and vice versa. One popular distance function is the absolute corre...
