Distance correlation application to gene co-expression network analysis

Abstract Background To construct gene co-expression networks, it is necessary to evaluate the correlation between different gene expression profiles. However, commonly used correlation metrics, including both linear (such as Pearson’s correlation) and monotonic (such as Spearman’s correlation) depen...
