Parenclitic networks for predicting ovarian cancer

Prediction and diagnosis of complex disease may not always be possible with a small number of biomarkers. Modern 'omics' technologies make it possible to cheaply and quantitatively assay hundreds of molecules generating large amounts of data from individual samples. In this study, we describe a parenclitic network-based approach to disease classification using a synthetic data set modelled on data from the United Kingdom Collaborative Trial of...
