Comparison of different functional prediction scores using a gene-based permutation model for identifying cancer driver genes

Abstract Background Identifying cancer driver genes (CDG) is a crucial step in cancer genomic toward the advancement of precision medicine. However, driver gene discovery is a very challenging task because we are not only dealing with huge amount of data; but we are also faced with the complexity of...
